Kit Kelen #1075 - it's all about us or pumpkin considers its options


1075
it's all about us
or
pumpkin considers the options 

 

how lovely first
to see a pumpkin
considering its shape
from scratch

as fleshed forth of vine
which just before was seed
so sprout

delicious in the soup that was
a pip spit trimming to the board's side
the ones that weren't fried

now shine
like a fallen sun

and you are cloud
and Earth too

considering variety
not yet set to show

Ur pumpkin still
and wilted back behind
where life springs
after hours
with drop of dew

that is pumpkin's solar collector –
more beautiful than ours

I call myself the pumpkin's gift
and lift this lithe so minded line
that you may love the pumpkin too

on dry days
later in the soup

what little water I bear through summer
please take for best devotion
