Pear,
cabbage
and melons-
in harvested still
life.
A

juxtapose-
as her cleavage

melons and lemons
lemons and melons
though they don’t taste the same
if you’re dyslexic they are by name...

Many melons on the table
I will eat them if I'm able
All at once, I cannot do
Not until I take a poo
And so, until my butt is stable
they'll be sittin' on the table...

I eased in bed,
she began to fed,
I felt warm melons,
she started growing talons,
as I soothed on cherries,
she made me wary,
it was her teeth,
that had gnashed,
and sunk in a hungry crash,
I diengaged and made a dash....

What are those dangly things hanging down to your navel
Are they melons... you can rest them here on the table
Glad I don't have those
They add charm I suppose
Pretty dang sure though, they'd make me unstable...

A young man flashed a big grin at me
He said ‘phwarrr’ your melons look juicy
I covered my tanned chest
But the guy did attest
Look - the one’s in your trolley, silly!

summers are known for
the schorching sun, longer days
and starry short nights

summers are known for
the mangoes, sweet melons
and loads of ice creams

summers are meant for
long vacations and more time
with friends & family...

Limerick : Once a Senorita from Sevilla – 4

Once a Senorita from Sevilla
Gobbled four water-melons from Murcia
Head took the shape of one
Buns in front then weighed ton
Sad, only one bum could say : Bon Dia !

In a supermarket, phrases like “nice cans” or “nice melons”
Sound innocent unless a well endowed philly nearby threatens 
Then head for the checkout
Avoiding a crime scene headcount
Run like a gazelle, she'll be on your cart in seconds...

“If I claimed you sexually harassed me,
Who do you think they’d actually believe?
You – the convicted felon,
Or me, with my large melons?”
“You…so I might as well take what I please!”

June's boobies resemble ripe melons
in tight tops they look like bald felons 
She's got a swell chest
but I must attest
they're tiny compared to Sue Ellen's!

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!

Donald Trump has one Golden Rule
A Winner must always be cruel
Today he's nice
Like rats or mice
Because, you know, its April Fool!

With his Cabinet of felons
Trump sought Stormy Daniel's melons
The Democrats jeered
But Republicans cheered
And promised not to be "tell-on"s...

Tempted fruit too young to peel
Juicy in hormones ripe qith heat
A time has approached of the wild fruit
Farmers nourish but can't keep vines from growing
Roun' melons on high,
Bananas too long, apples intertwined between two colors
Shiny and dull, 
All over scented citrus peaks from its rhine...

S is for the Sun 
that shines brightly 
in the sky  

U is for umbrellas 
that shield you
from the hot sun 
at the beach

M is for melons 
that you can enjoy 
eating outdoors

M is for weather 
that is muggy

E is for eating 
and enjoying 
ice cream cones

R is for 
summer road trips...

lilacs&
      roses,
zest of
       oranges
       melons
       &pears,
perfumes
shed by
lavender fields,
stimulate
         the eye
         nose
ear
&
lips
in verse
&
song

Bright Marguerites,open and ablaze,
Reflected in a sunny haze.
Lilies waxed in a summer light,
A Jasmined fragrance to fill the night....

picnics summertime
an excited hot dogs fun
by the lemonade 

eating cold melons
fam gathering in the shade
chasing ice cream truck

lovely summertime
at the park feeding the ducks
sitting at the lake

picnic at the park
covered laver in sunblock
hot now summertime
