An ode to October

We interrupt the birthday news to bring you.... a poem. Thank you Maurice Sendak.

In October
I'll be host
to witches, goblins
and a ghost.
I'll serve them
chicken soup
on toast.
Whoopy once
Whoopy twice
Whoopy chicken soup
with rice.

Ole Pierre said, "I don't care" but then the lion ate Pierre. I like Maurice Sendak. I used to read those books to our kids.
Thanks for the poem.
