This is Just to Say




I have eaten
the treats
that were in
the pumpkin

and which
you were probably
saving
for dessert    

Forgive me
they were delicious
so sweet
a mother's love

This one's for our daughter, who loves the original poem. I hope Halloween was sweet, and not too cold, on your end! Our kids took in far more Twix than tricks. 

(I only had one Milky Way. I swear.)
