I’m a Pirate and a Pumpkin
From the book A Festival for Frogs
I’m a pirate and a pumpkin.
I’m a fairy and a frog.
I’m a robot and a skeleton,
a dragon and a dog.
I’m a mummy and a werewolf.
I’m a superhero too.
I’m a combination zombie
ballerina kangaroo.
I’m an alien, an astronaut,
a cowboy, and a queen.
Yes, I’m wearing all my costumes.
Man, it’s cold this Halloween!
