Pumpkin Poem
One day I found two pumpkins seeds. I planted one
and pulled the weeds. It sprouted roots and a
big,long vine. A pumpkin grewI called it mine (I
really am quite proud of that) But there is
something Ill admit That has me worried just a
bit. I ate the other seed you see. Now will it
grow inside of me? Im so relieved since I have
found That pumpkins only grow in the ground.
