“Ghost Cutie Pie”

It tis that time of year;

When our ghost friend, Cutie Pie is near.

Every fall in October, he comes to visit;

Dressed up on Halloween, looking exquisite!

You can’t see him during the summer;

Which to him is not a bummer.

He only comes around in the middle of fall;

When leaves are falling, like a beautiful waterfall.

He comes into our house;

More welcome than a mouse.

He loves to hide behind our things;

He’s very quiet; never sings.

My children know when he’s around;

Looking for him though, he can’t be found.

But when the children take their bath;

Cutie Pie joins them, with no towel he hath.

A warm breeze tickles them when Cutie’s around;

Waving their towels and never making a sound.

Cutie Pie has a non-favorite place in our house;

It is where we keep the traps for the not wanted mouse.

As you may have figured out by now;

Cutie Pie is not a dog or even a milking cow.

Cutie Pie is just the furnace blowing air;

Floating around the house with all its flare.

From every grate and vent, Cutie finds his way;

Keeping us warm throughout the nastiest winter day!

Now you know who our Fall visitor, Cutie Pie is;

Enjoy his warmth with his playful, fizz.

As when Winter comes, Cutie Pie will always be near;

Keeping you toasty warm, without a single fear.
