Pumpkin Head

At first he was a zebra,
Then a Paddington Bear
And then a little wee skunk
with faux fur hair
Once Captain Star
got a bit too grubby
When first mistaken
for a Teletubby.
Junior Kindergarten spider
Then a little red Fox
Pointy-eared Legolas
Slick Neo redux
King Arthur, a fighter pilot,
And a blue-faced Celt
Followed by a Courier de Bois
Complete with pelt
Then came the last
to be stored in our attic
A lowly Crusader
The religious fanatic
And now we are left
Just my husband and me
Missing the masquerade zebra
Our Dan used to be.
