In the middle of a pumpkin patch
while enjoying a sun filled day,
he's watching little goblins
with a smile on his face.
Pies cool in windows
smelling so good,
hopefully
he's not
one.

A very good write and interpretation on the picture prompt. Skillfully crafted nonet. Good imagery, flow and tone. Lovely depth of feeling. Vivid descriptives. Good word choice, nice alliteration and assonance. Thank you for your entry.

LOl A great poem it really made me smile. I have never eaten pumpkin pie I don't think people in the UK cook that a lot. Is it nice? I think we only get pumpkins here in the Uk on halloween though there maybe some place somewhere that does them. I remember once going to New York and getting pumpkin soup it was delicious. Anyway loved your poem.

Yes--I noticed the color choice right away--and I can't wait to eat some pumpkin pie! Never saw one before, but if this is a nonet, I like them!

This is a delightful Nonet with good flow and tastefully done...now where's that pie? LOL
Best of luck in the contest.

Very sweet.
This is a lovely little poem. I like pumpkin pie on the holidays. Ever heard of making a pear pie the same way you do an apple?

This is so cute and filled with the autumn spirit. Your color choice and formatting add to the adorable picture. Your syllable count is perfect and the layout shows a true triangle. Very well done. Good luck in this contest. Peace, Liz
