Dressed
in silver and yellow and blue
The
fashion models of the sea
Preening
on the cat-fish-walk
We hang
cool
We are
not grey and drab
Like the
chubby chub or green crab
Who wish
they were us
Pumpkins
As you
probably know
Are
beautiful flowers
That
grow on the shimmering moon
And
scatter their seeds
Into the
ocean home
Even our
name
Is
rather beautiful
Pumpkinseeds

lovely Roger, I'd never heard of them before
Great! Always nice to be able to sing along to the tune of "We Are The Ovalteenies".
Thank you, Sue. Thank you, Mr Wasted Papers. The aquatic version of the Ovalteenies was due for another appearance.
