Scarecrow and Cat

Pumpkin head scarecrow hanging on wood stake Lit and quite frightening, surely of late As Halloween comes near he’s scarier And he loves the hate inspired barrier Laying on a pumpkin within the patch Is the darkest black cat that doesn’t match Any piece of the field is not like him He’s unique in his charm and every whim Together the cat watches out for man Who might enter and try to harm pumpkins They use their evil powers all they can To keep out all of those that come within Spirit of the scarecrow envelopes all Who enter, protected by the cat’s call Russell Sivey
