Juicy and delicious they are <br />Just made for a summer treat <br />As they squirt inside your mouth <br />They’re so wonderful and sweet <br /> <br />Picnics aren’t complete <br />Until a watermelon is cut <br />Slices of the scrumptious fruit <br />Drags you from a daily rut <br /> <br />Party’s have a veggie plate <br />And nestled right within <br />Are melons all chunked up <br />Not to have them is a sin <br /> <br />And also is the cantaloupe <br />So perfect for a summer fare <br />Orange as a ripe pumpkin <br />Smoothing out unwanted cares <br /> <br />So let us celebrate the melon <br />Whether red or orange or green <br />Juicy and so sweet <br />A scrumptious summer dream!<br /><br />Marilyn Lott<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/celebrate-the-melon/
