Pumpkin Poem

One day I found two pumpkin seeds. I planted one and pulled the weeds. It sprouted roots and a big, long vine.

A pumpkin grew; I called it mine. The pumpkin was quite round and fat.

( I really am quite proud of that.)

But there is something I'll admit

That has me worried just a bit.

I ate the other seed, you see.

Now will it grow inside of me?
