Juicy Melons

I’ve got a couple of juicy melons
They are dangling so temptingly
Round with plump firm flesh
Shame they aren’t ready for picking yet!

Now now what were you thinking guys …
It’s the first year I’ve grown them in my greenhouse!

i wouldn't care where you grew them as long as you brought them with you to bed. A real gem of a poem and as to what i was thinking. i was thinking of fruits, you know fruits as in gay men and how they don't care much for a nice set of melons. not that there is anything wrong with being gay. i have been inspired thank you.

U said u werent hinting at anyting else? How come i spy a notty teasin tinge of comparison, or maybe coincidentaly just yestrday i was readin a piece by a Western lady writer on site writing.com who wrote, 'i found him staring at my boobs, so i questioned him, hey you like my watermelons.?'.! I even postd her a coment sayin, 'u westners r pretty bold to ask yor dates sth like that'. But i enjoyd yor fabulous poem on real fruit. Nice to read u again poetess jan. Take care.
