Greetings to all! The month of October is fast reaching its conclusion, and I am sure our friends from the Northern Hemisphere are beginning to feel the chill that will follow harvest-time. The one thing I really miss out on in my upside-down seasonal world, is the ritual of the pumpkin... and Halloween! It always looks like a fun celebration to be a part of. It seems that pumpkins come in all shapes and sizes!
Please link up a poem of your choice - whether old or new, written for pleasure or prompt - all poetry is welcome today. Take the time to visit the blogs of your fellow poets for a rewarding time spent in the garden.
In our Florida heat, premature jack-o-lanterns ejaculate inward, frowsing their brows and a-kiltering their hats! Still, the pumpkin choir is wonderful to hear as All-Hallows approaches.
Happy Monday Kerry and Toads. Having a pumpkin this time of year in the USA is like having a turkey for thanksgiving. Mine is decorating my steps until I am ready to wrestle it into pies and soup.
I'd love to do a pumpkin write for you. Pumpkin pie is my favorite vegetable. Also pumpkin time and Halloween readiness are heralds of my upcoming late October birthday.
BUT I posted my 'grain' poem for you so late last night, I'd like more readership for it. Next Monday? Thank you for reading it and for your nice comment. Sorry to get dark with it but I personally know a similar true story. Both members in our family but no biological relationship between the couple. ..
Howdy. I'm new to posting on Imaginary Garden, though I have known of it for a while. Looking forward to reading some new blogs and getting to know everyone here.
Hey Kerry, this poem was also inspired by your In Other Words challenge, but I didn't use the title in the end, since I was linking here. Thanks again--such a cool challenge. I'm going to think about it with other books as makes for a great jumping off place.
Somehow I don't have time for pumpkins with no little kids in the house--though there should be time, I hope, for pie. k.

I can barely wait to make our traditional Pumpkin Chilli. I might cheat and make it before All Hallow's Eve. ;-D
Happy Monday, everyone!
Ha.. no real pumpkin traditions in Sweden.. Here it's time to lit candles on the graves soon...

Happy Monday everyone. :-)
Hello all! I am playing the wicked card with my poem. :)

It's a tradition to carve quite elaborate faces and art on our pumpkins… i always look forward to the friendly family competition.
