Apple Orchard

Aromas of an orchard, on a crisp fall day

Delectable sun kissed apples shining like huge rubies

Rows of apple trees as far as the eye can see

Sweet aroma of fruit inviting bumble bees to feast giving golden honey to slather on bread

Floor of orchard alive with life too

Rotten apples became too heavy and their lifelines become a banquet for worms

Little children in bare feet with baskets in tow

Pulling and wrenching globular red beauties

Sinking in our teeth, hearing them explode

Bad boys and girls get a worm in their apples

Nature’s way of revenge

Butterflies riding the wind

Red hair little girl with freckles and pinkest skin you ever saw

Lays down by rivers edge devouring her apple

Fire in the sky as sun gets ready to rest for night

Birds flying here and there going back to their homes

Worms cuddling inside apples, for a safe nights lullaby

Children one by one, give good byes to orchard

Our mother’s home waiting to bake delectable treats

Can’t what for morning, apple turnover meets my mouth
