                                                       October :

                                          His store of nuts and acorns now

                                             the squirrel hastes to gain, 

                                           And sets his house in order for 

                                              the winters dreary reign.

                                                          - Joyce Cary 

                                                 The Pumpkin

                         

                            "When all the cows were sleeping
                            And the sun had gone to bed,
                               Up jumped the pumpkin,
                                And this is what he said:

                             I'm a dingle dangle pumpkin
                                With a flippy floppy hat.
                            I can shake my stem like this,
                             And shake my vine like that."
