Today, I poeticize my frustration about gourds.
Lumpy, bumpy, gross.
Why do you buy these stupids?
I swat them to death.
.
Colorful and bright
They taunt me with their wax shell
and offend my tongue.
.
“Gourds for sale,” it said.
Each one was .69 cents.
Waste of treat money.
I don’t know. Am I wrong? How do YOU feel about gourds?
Love,
Crepes.
PS. Are you familiar with Tree House’s Black Cat Ball? Well it’s this week! It’s on Friday, October 17th at the Adler Planetarium for the first time! Tickets are $150 each and include drinks and hours ‘deurves (You know what? I’m not even going to try to spell that.) and a special celebrity appearance from Kevin Fitzgerald of Animal Planet’s “Emergency Vets.” For more info, click here!
I can’t spell that word either, but I’ve found if I remember hors, generally the spell check figures the rest out.. but apparently not this time.. lol
as for gourds, I like ’em cause they are cute to look at..
We don’t know gourds, and don’t really know what to think about it, except that it seems to wake up your inner poet ! Purrs
You’d have to be out of your gourd to bring home one of those. ; )
We don’t understand gourds either. Gramps makes birdhouses out of dried ones for the finches in the summer. That Ball sounds really neat! Hope we get to see pictures from it!

birdhouses!! WHat a neat idea! Luv, Pixie xxooxx
You see them in Fall.
These strangely colored objects
abound at this time.
Gourds look very weird.
Are they from another place?
Perhaps outer space?
Of what use are they?
For shooting skeet perhaps? Pull!
See the mess they make.
We apologize for our Mom’s brain. We really don’t know what is wrong with her.

Wow! Luv, Pixie xx00xx
Hi Pixie! When you said “Wow” I wondered if it was because you liked it or thought I needed a psychological intervention! MOL FuzzMother
We think gourds would be fun to play with…they look very whappable.
I gather you don’t like gourds….don’t hold anything back Crepes….its bad for your digestion. I grew many squash this year…..also called gourds….I haven’t tried to eat any because truth be told I don’t like veggies…..so I can see where you’re coming from friend.
(((Shoko)))
I think my kitties would like to gnaw on them like you are doing. I like the colors, but they are too bumpy.
We don’t have any gourds around here… but they sure do look bumpy and gross! We are with you, Crepes. Though we do like pumpkins!
Gourd pie? Doesn’t sound right, or good!
Noodle and crew
Crepes..Did you see that our city , Chicago was named “rattiest” in the country? We have more rats them anyone!! Maybe they like gourds! I hope next year we are the “cattiest” with all the cats having safe, forever homes or being TNR’d Luv, Pixie xx00xx
Trouts..I luv your writing! Maybe Crepes teeth are so clean from chewing oon the gourd! We now have a purpose for them Luv, Pixie xx00xx
