Jack-O'-Lantern

Jack-O'-Lantern
By Dorothy Aldis

They chose me from my brothers
"That's the nicest one," they said.
And they carved me out a face and put a 
Candle in my head.

And they set me on the doorstep and the 
Night was dark and wild;
And when they lit the candle then I 
Smiled and smiled and smiled.
