Notes About The Poem

Cold slice of watermelon on a hot day

- Juicy -

A lovely aroma from a meadow with wild roses
The sweetness of the summer sparkles the electrified air
Warm and thirsty ~ the refreshing taste of watermelon

A nice sweet way to end my visit with you Anne-Lise. Where I live I can smell the aroma of orange blossoms everywhere, Magnolia trees and sweet Jasmine. The fields are filled with strawberries, tomatoes that get canned by Del Monte, blueberries and sugar cane made into sugar at the largest sugar producing plant in the world, but I'm always a little saddened when I pass the watermelon fields after the final harvest and see hundreds of watermelons rotting in the dirt.

Watermelon appears to be a summer hit no matter where a person lives. They grow locally with nearly no care. Ah, you describe its luscious flavor wonderfully, Sunshine! Best wishes in the contest. Hugs, carolyn
