Summer Bliss
The sunblock covers my skin
on this sweltering, July day.
Any misgivings or typed feelings of remorse enable us to sit back, and relax.
Ease the verbage in the brilliant win of finally tasting that first bite of watermelon ferver.
The kind that cuts like a crisp mound of lovely oasis.
All of your cares are brushed aside.
Life can be simpler this way,
taking everything one day at a time.
Pool Party
I went to a pool party with some friends.
We had a wonderful time
sampling barbecue, and pasta dishes on plastic plates.
I choose to remember the good times that remain.
This was when I met the lady with the watermelon hair.
It was right on and packed in
a lovely bun.
I could see the tendrils of curls
on the side of her face.
What struck me was that I woke up in this daydream
looking at her mane as if it were extinct.
By rights I should appear even more appreciative.
The answer was a gentler
person with a span of freckles
on her arms.
We stayed in conversation
throughout the afternoon.
I even learned a lesson or two:
That watermelon hair looks good on only a few.
Watermelon Kiss
I can remember watermelon more than ever before.
Why do kisses remind me?
Why should I deny
this love when so many ties
go wrong?
At least watermelon leaves you feeling full.
Most lovers may never see your unique qualities.
There won't be an excuse for sin,
but watermelon on a summer day
is always a win!
Take it from this girl
who looks forward to some more,
just what her heart is
aching for.
