Watermelon



she is the reddest of watermelon.

the kind you sink your teeth into

and wonder how something could taste so sweet

the kind that drips down your chin

and leaves its sent on your shirt

the kind where you don't really mind how messy it is

or how long it'll take to clean up

the kind that everyone wants

and cannot find when summer comes...

the kind that you crave on your tongue

and on your fingers


and on your lips



and on the back of your hand






they are the reddest of watermelon.
