watermelon, watermelon
a little slice of heaven
wouldn’t it be delightful
if they sold it on the street
for you
for me
such a lovely treat
would help to beat the heat
sliced
in fat wedges
we’d eat along the hedges
that line the avenue
perhaps they could serve dainty little cubes
on a skewer
not that we’d eat any fewer
or wait! made into a granita
with lime
we’d love it, we’d love it ALL the time
if only
watermelon
was sold
on the street
