Watermelon

See my thick green skin that covers my pink flesh, don't
let me be over ripe or I will be a mesh.
What I mean by a mesh is gritty with disgust.
I have to be just right, it is a must!
Succulent juices, sweet like candy when just right,
the tantalizing flavor of each and every bite.

Kids with sticky hands and faces with smiles,
the fun part is spitting seeds which will build up big piles.
Please use your discretion and lift me with care.
The weight of me can be to much to bare.
Always make sure that I have been lying on the ground,
be observant, become like a hound.
There is nothing like enjoying me on hot summer days.
While waiting in expectation and enjoying the rays.
