REMBERING PEACHES AND A VACATION
In the bigness of the Apple city
Walking down some street
Where fruit sellers are
I stop to purchase
Peaches
Seen them in the movies before
Read them in books before
And now here i am in NY city
Buying Peaches
Reaching indoors
I wash them
And bite into a yummy hidden yellowness
My first taste of
Peaches
I eat them every day
What's a vacation for
If not to eat
Peaches
When i return home where
Summer cyah done
There will be watermelons
Green variegated thick skins
And sweet crunchy red flesh
I will keep cool then, eating
Watermelon slices.
