Emilia James Poet Rhyme

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

Hannington Mumo October 11, 2020 at 2:16 PM 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! Emilia James October 22, 2020 at 3:10 AM Thank you so much Hannington, pleased you enjoyed the fruits of this poem, Emilia : )

Gershon Wolf October 8, 2020 at 5:48 PM I think that you must be a distant relation of Johnny Appleseed. Are you Emilia A. James, perhaps?! Fruitful Fun, Gershon Emilia James October 9, 2020 at 2:42 PM Thank you Gershon, glad you enjoyed, had to google that name lol, Emilia : )
