Tuesday 26th May Wall to wall sunshine, bodies on the beach Cooking away nicely, "Sunscreen!" I beseech Vitamin D is necessary, please don't get me wrong But frying like a lobster, damage could be life long So many burnt shoulders, peeling, unsightly skin D'you know what you've done? What's going on, within? Melanoma; skin cancer, might not happen today But a few years down the line, it'll be nothing to downplay You can't just cut it out, for it's a sneaky beast Lying dormant, then, like a devil, released Taking over your life, biopsies, skin grafts Scans and appointments, normality's in the past Just always worrying, asking when it will return Scanxiety, melanoia, a real cause for concern So slap on some sunscreen, and wear a big hat Seek shade when it's hot, prevention's where it's at Melanoma awareness throughout the month of May But it mustn't stop here, care for your skin everyday . xxxxx May is Melanoma Awareness Month Protect your skin Save your ass
