Ode to the pickled watermelon rind

"But in a jar put up by Felicity,
The summer which maybe never was
Has been captured and preserved.
And when we unscrew the lid
And slice off a piece
And let it linger on our tongue;
Unicorns become possible again."

- "Reflections on a Gift of Watermelon Pickle," by John Tobias
