I have just been given bragging rights
Yes it happened tonight
Before the sun gave its final shine
Carefully a 30 pound 4 ounce watermelon was pulled from its vine
Yes I do believe that entitles me to the right
To brag and make a little sight
Pictures upon the scale I took
No, it will not go down in a book
But it was grown with my two hands
On country land
Where my certificate to brag is framed
And yes it has been proclaimed
By a witness standing at my side
He almost fell over and died
When the scale tipped over thirty
And all I could say is, Isn’t it purdy*
Fresh fruits harvested from our backyard that grew by the care of our hands is a pride indeed. I took felt proud of my produced such such mango, mangosteen, papaya, etc whic I palnted around my house. To taste them bloats my pride even greater. Thanks for sharing Patricia. Your grandsons must be proud of you too! High marks.
