Keeper of the Pumpkins

A big blue house with an even bigger pumpkin patch.

The pumpkins were so big the lady was powerless.

She was a petite elderly woman who lived alone.

Every morning she wakes up and all day she sits with her pumpkins.

The only memories she had left of him.

Her husband had passed away many years before.

They moved to Vermont to get that good soil,

But when he passed she couldn't keep the whole garden.

She kept the pumpkins to remind her of their first date.

At that moment she knew he was the one.

She takes care of the pumpkins as if they were her children.

With love and commitment.
