Whitey Lights the Snowy Pumpkin Patch

There once was a pumpkin named Whitey.
       Who grew in a field and was mighty.
He had a  high air,
        Because he felt he was rare.
Being white, and other pumpkins were slighty.

There came a big snow storm one nighty.
       And the pumpkins were afraid without a lighty.
But in the snow, Whitey arose,
       On his cold little tip toes,
And glowed in the patch because he was snow whitey.

The next day the pumpkins weren't slighty.
       Because Whitey had come through with a lighty.
So it just goes to show,
       If you're a white pumpkin in the snow,
Your life can turn out to be brighty!!!!!!!



Inspired by the White Pumpkin and the Snow poem contest.
