Apple Bouquet

Apple Bouquet Bouquet of apples adorn on the trees Born of the flower pollinated by bees Varieties of apples large and small Red, green and pinks shade mixes of all Apples nurtured by cord of the tree Soft gentle breeze swing apples to see Bobbing arm branches like child on a knee Protected and cradled within its soft leaves Fragrance abound a sensual delight Sweet or tart some with crispy crunch bite Healthy are they to keep doctor away Told to young children parents may say Pies or crumbles, a delicious made sauce Picked from the trees gods gifted grown source Recipes of thousands to call from a book Even to freeze some easy to cook Freshly made juice or cider if dare Mixed in a cocktail just be aware Treat for a horse you may wish to share Place on bird table our friends to care When all is harvest and leaves on the ground Ready to sleep recoup nourishment found Pruning the branches care plan for the trees Seasons new harvest farmers hope to foresee 08.10.20

An impressive array of dainty rhymes and thoughts. I hugely like its deceptively sweet tendings toward the simpler and the less explored...keeping a constant hawk's eye on the very natural-soundingness of it all. Superb job!

I think that you must be a distant relation of Johnny Appleseed. Are you Emilia A. James, perhaps?! Fruitful Fun, Gershon
