160: Dream Big


Scary Jack o’ Lanterns,
Spicy pumpkin bread.
Grand dreams of glory
Filled little pumpkin heads.

“You’re all crazy,”
The big one said
“I’d rather be
A coach instead.”


Happy Halloween, Everyone!

This is my offering for Sunday 160, hosted by Monkey Man.

  5. Jannie: Carrie after midnight? Oh, you are a brave girl. I hope you put Bl;ue bunny to bed first, ;-)

    Brian: Happy Halloween, Brian.

    Mona: indeed. Who wouldn't want to drive Cinderella around?

  6. Now THAT was a pumpkiny post for Halloween if ever I saw one. Generally, I don't care for pumpkin... but I was invited for an afternoon "brunch" recently and there I was served an excellent pumpkin muffin.

  14. I love this. I want to finish that last line with "as he fell through the looking glass", but that would take it WAY over 160.
