Coming home from the beach, New Year’s day.
Stopping off near Woodburn to buy
watermelons stacked by the road in shade.
Spitting seeds out the windows without shame.
Juice all down our naked children chests.
We’d smile at nothing.

watermelons are wonderful fun
ps we live near Woodburn, or in that region…
and my hubby travels an hour each day to teach chemistry at St Mary’s High School in Casino :)

wow – I would walk by St Mary’s every day – my father owned the shell service station opposite the church.

Wonderful – I haven’t eaten watermelons in Italy, but I have eaten tomatoes in Milan.
