Short Watermelons Poems

Freedom 

I can go outside. 
I can go inside. 
I can climb a mountain, 
or swim in the sea. 

Freedom. 

I am free....

Watermelons as 
Roses bloom, while these peelings; 
Leaves make room for drops 
Within flesh of such redness, 
Dyed with the purest juices....

she still has a stall
at the local market
she's the archetypal
structure of a
farmer's
daughter

she has the best
watermelons
in town
seedless
no less 
i love

to test
their
ripe
ness...

when the fly lights on
the flower he smells something
an aroma fair

smells like bananas
peaches and watermelons
butterfly says "hi"

as it flutters by
sweet the smells of the blossoms
so the fly just smiles

dogs eating lions
small fish eating big fish
watermelons grown squarish
bombing tunnels is third world war
blind obedience to next level state
is causing mass civil killings in long war
like broken stars,broken earth may discontinue
sun orbit
it is supranova explosion
it is end of civilisation 
it is universal death

Once upon a time, Lucy useless
Would eat breath mints
Even though she had no teeth

Lucy juicy
Dance watusi
Eats watermelons because they're juicy

She don't like broccoli
Drinks hot chocolate
Shallows properly

Even though she had no teeth
She would still eat
Blazen hot roast-beef

Chewed stalks brown corn
Skeleton dead heads of sunflowers
rotten tomatoes and watermelons

fruitless vines and weeds waist high
Purple salvia blooms shine
Orange Marigolds

**ideas---------

blooms blown
Weeds shown

stalks bare
Full hare

scalp bare
no hair

flower power showers 
Sour pity hour
Powdered sugar icing
tower the sweet wower...

The summertime of love
Sweet of the grasses that blow in the breeze
Those watermelons scent after a mold lawn
Rabbits and squirrels dance near the pond
In the Amber's son illuminates White cloud segregate
Blue environment
Rainbow butterflies ants hot dogs and apple pies
Spring surface summertime is not risen it's here and it's so nice

Gleaming gadgets galore
Aquarius is speaking a new lore

Drive-thru getting longer
Hunger pains growing stronger

Pleasurable engagements and easing pain on fleek
Mindless stimuli and opioids we seek

Civil unrest amid quarantine
Masks coming off, no buffers between

Loud is getting louder
Apathy growing dour

Watermelons without seeds in abundance
DNA heisting and genetic gold cumbrance 

My vision is crystal clear 
2020 a year of fear...

Summer meant my mother's watermelon kim chee
Hot and sweet a treat to eat with rice of white
From the white flesh of the melon rind a delight
In small strips of sticks she did cut
And cured and spiced to golden orange we'd eat it up
The red flesh of melon was okay
But the watermelon kim chee made our day
I hope in God's garden watermelons grow
Because in my time when there I go
My mother will be there to welcome me
And at Heaven's table she'll made watermelon kim chee...

Listen to poem:

~these are the smells that I love 
I love the smell of the brisk,  crisp spring Air
Love the smell of the pine needles
 I love the smell of fresh cut grass smells like in watermelons 
I love the smell of Autumn fall 
I love the smell of a bumblebee 
Those the smell of a new birth baby 
I love O' also smells of a brand new puppy
These are just few-
 these are a few of the ole smells
That I love so well

I am Captain America
the man with the red, white and blue shield
I needed to borrow a bicycle
so it was an epic one I would steal

It had watermelons encased
within it's wheels
oh I looked superior
circling around with this deal

You could even see the seeds
as they swirled around
I would be going after my enemies
with fruitfullness abound

But as epic as this would be
my ride would come to an end
and I'd have to give the bicycle back
where the owner would become my friend...
