The Most Unlucky Pumpkin in the World

     One wonderful Tuesday, October 26th 2010 I was put in a pumpkin patch.  I hated it there but when I got a little used to it, I sort of liked it.  I mean, I have tons of friends out here in the pumpkin patch. 
     Two weeks after I just arrived, I saw someone looking at me.  I thought the boy was going to pick me up and he did.  He took me to his house and set me on the table.  I felt so nervous, I almost peed in my pants.  Oh!
I don't even have any pants!  Never mind.  I saw him with something like a mini saw and it was pointing at me.  What does he think he is?  A pumpkin surgeon or something?  He started cutting holes in me.  "It hurts, stop," I told him.  But he didn't hear me.  Now I remember what my friend told me that it's a thing that people do to us on Halloween. People do it to honor the evil spirits. 
      Then, the boy took all of my beautiful babies and put them in a frying pan and he ate them.  Next thing I know I see a candle in me.  I wish I were never a pumpkin ever again.
