Pumpkin Poems

Peter, Peter, Pumpkin Eater
Peter, Peter Pumpkin Eater
Had a wife and couldn't keep her.
He put her in a pumpkin shell
And there he kept her very well.

Five Little Pumpkins

Five little pumpkins sitting on a gate,
The first one said, Oh, my it’s getting late!
The second one said, There are owls in the air!
The third one said, But we don’t care!
The fourth one said, Let’s run and run and run!
The fifth one said, I’m ready for some fun!
Then Whoooo went the wind
And out (clap) went the lights
And the five little pumpkins rolled out of sight!

Pumpkins

When you see me in the fields,
My orange glowing in the sun,
It's time to say goodbye to summer
and hello to autumn fun!!

I’m a Little Pumpkin
(Tune: I’m a Little Tea Pot)

I’m a little pumpkin short and stout.
Here are my eyes and here is my mouth.
When its Halloween and you are out,
Just lift my lid and hear me shout.
Boo!

Mr. Pumpkin
(tune: Where is Thumbkin)
Mr. Pumpkin,
Mr. Pumpkin,
Round and fat.
Round and fat.

Harvest time is coming.
Harvest time is coming.
Yum, yum, yum.
That is that!

Pumpkin Song
(tune: I'm a Little Teapot)

I'm a little pumpkin
Orange and round.

Here is my stem,
There is the ground.

When I get all cut up,
Don't you shout!

Just open me up
And scoop me out!
