The Happy Pumpkin

I found you in the market Your eyes lit up with a glow I sat you on the pouch Putting on a show With ghosts and goblins Laughing and screaming The wind flicking with eyes gleaming Trick or treat was said Then faces of delight With doorbells ringing And children singing It was a Hallow night Witches, Vampires and more Came knocking at the door Jumping through piles of leaves Crossing streets for candy treats Along came Freddy With swords for fingers Then Jason came by With a mask of horror All running by my flickering eyes Then darkness came upon my light I came back to life On Thanksgiving Day Then they gutted me out becoming a pumpkin pie Then a turkey flew by The table was set A touchdown was made All seats were filled And a prayer was said Then the turkey was gobbled down I felt whip cream Upon my brow I knew this was The End
