Pumpkin

Laying in a cardboard box

You grab me from all I've known

Across the dusty conveyor belt 

And into your car I go 

And with this I leave my life, my family, my temporary home

You set me on the counter with the diapers and cheese

The kitchen window open a light fall breeze 

I spend my last moments watching the sun

The stars are rising I know what's to come  

In the morning you will rise your baby in hand 

and I will become just another Jack'o man
