another cautionary tale

of peaking too early

and burning out just before the big show.

always wanting to make sure

they have their costumes on in time,

alice and walter proudly sit around in clever disguise

 ready for the big day.

all hallows’ eve.

I spot the hills 
With yellow balls in autumn. 
I light the prairie cornfields 
Orange and tawny gold clusters 
And I am called pumpkins. 
On the last of October 
When dusk is fallen 
Children join hands 
And circle round me 
Singing ghost songs 
And love to the harvest moon; 
I am a jack-o’-lantern 
With terrible teeth 
And the children know 
I am fooling.

-"theme in yellow" -carl sandburg 1878-1967
