Pumpkins in moonlight
A nice project for a Happy Halloween

Over the River
Over the river, and through the wood,
To Grandfather’s house we go;
The horse knows the way to carry the sleigh
through the white and drifted snow.
Over the river, and through the wood—
Oh, how the wind does blow!
It stings the toes and bites the nose
As over the ground we go.
Over the river, and through the wood,
To have a first-rate play.
Hear the bells ring, “Ting-a-ling-ding”,
Hurrah for Thanksgiving Day!
Over the river, and through the wood
Trot fast, my dapple-gray!
Spring over the ground like a hunting-hound,
For this is Thanksgiving Day.
Over the river, and through the wood—
And straight through the barnyard gate,
We seem to go extremely slow,
It is so hard to wait!
Over the river, and through the wood—
Now Grandmother’s cap I spy!
Hurrah for the fun! Is the pudding done?
Hurrah for the pumpkin pie!
Little Seeds
Little seeds we sow in spring
Growing while the robins sing,
Give us carrots, peas and beans,
Tomatoes, pumpkins, squash and greens.
And we pick them,
One and all,
Through the summer,
Through the fall,
Winter comes, then spring, and then
Little seeds we sow again.
PUMPKIN’S CHOICE
Pumpkin in the cornfield
Shiny, round and slick
You are big and yellow,
Ripe enough to pick.
Tell me would you rather
Turn into pumpkin pies,
Or become a lantern
With funny, crooked eyes?
This is my opinion;
I think you’ll like it most,
To be a Jack-O-Lantern,
To sit upon a post
THE PUMPKIN
The Jack-o-Lantern chuckled
Then winked his funny eye
“I would rather be a pumpkin face
Than be inside a pie!”
