In the heat of summer, there's nothing quite as fine
As biting into a watermelon, so juicy and divine
Its vibrant pink flesh, dotted with black seeds
Is a feast for the senses, all of them it feeds

With a slice in hand, I close my eyes and take a bite
And the explosion of flavor is pure delight
The sweetness is like honey, the juice like a stream
And in that moment, it feels like a dream

The texture is soft, yet crisp and refreshing
Like a cool breeze on a hot day, it's truly amazing
And as I savor each mouthful, my taste buds dance
In a symphony of flavors, a true summer romance

Oh, watermelon, you are truly a gift
From the land where the sun is strong and swift
Your skin so tough, yet easy to peel
Your seeds so tiny, yet they pack a big deal

You come in all shapes and sizes, big and small
And no matter which one, you satisfy us all
You're a staple at picnics, BBQs, and more
A summer treat we all simply adore

So here's to you, watermelon, our summer love
As we savor every bite, we thank the heavens above
For blessing us with such a wonderful fruit
That brings us joy and makes our taste buds hoot.
