Hi. I like the image of gobbling watermelon and the piainting work well with it. I do however have a question about "spitten'" is that intentional; as in past tence, they are on the ground? or did you mean "spittin'". But anyway this conjures many memories.

BloomingRose~

Just LOVE your sense of humor~
And I heard it's just a rumor~
That you won a watermelon seed-spittin' contest
Without a dribble on your chest ! !

LOL !  

What a delightfully fun piece !
I had watermelon for breakfast yesterday ! !
