Nice Melons

There once was a girl from the lower east side,

She sold her sweet melons by the sunny seaside,

A young man came browsing,

His 'spirits' were rousing,

Grabbed her ripe wares and left with more than hurt pride.

    Melon grabbing at the farmer's market is how You check for quality produce. Melon grabbing on the subway, bus stop, or anywhere else for that matter will get You slapped and thrown in a number in a cell instead of a cell's number.
