I saw the Pumpkin King today,
The orange washed out of his face,
How did all of that color
Get removed without a trace?
“Welcome to my kingdom!”
He said with arms open wide.
I thought this awfully boastful
For a gourd whose color had died.
I bet he’s not the king at all,
He’s the type that likes to pester
“You’re not fooling me,” I said,
“It’s clear you’re the Pumpkin Jester!”
You never know who you’ll run into these days.
I’ll probably delete this, but only if the Pretender Pumpkin King issues a decree.
