Apple Is Hired

Cherry could hardly contain her excitement. Her busy brick office staff was hiring another apple today! Plain sweet chocolate drop asked her if she had heard. A selfish thought came into head, but she ignored it. What if this apple was as proud and stuck up as the last one? That might throw a wrench into her coherent plans. I hear this kind of apple is rather tasteless, chocolate drop said. What would she know? She barely had a bubble of experience. Cherry offered to undertake the teaching of Apple upon his arrival. He had a great ambiance, and seemed willing to listen to her commands. She felt they could carry on a casual affair in the future, Include chocolate drop? Why would they?

Possibly, I had not thought that far ahead.

Your imagination running wild...but what could we expect? The poem is rather fruity, I'd say. Of course chocolate drop would make some kind of disparaging remark about apple, the new hire.
