Watermelon Seeds

Watermelon Seeds


A fairy carried 

watermelon seeds 

in a shred of cloth 

in her pocket 

through the forest 

as thunder boomed overhead. 


But the pouch had

a hole and the seeds

fell out during the journey.


Once the fairy discovered

this it was too late

to recover the seeds 

due to the rain. 


The fairy thought 

for a moment 

and then smiled 

knowing watermelon 

would grow somewhere 

in the forest even if 

it wasn't her desired garden.
