Apple Pickin' Time

Me and Sweetie pickin’ apples -
Ones for making pies we find.
While my Sweetie climbs the ladder,
I stand watching from behind.

In his levis he’s a cutie,
plucking apples from the tree.
Meanwhile, I admire his booty
since he’s faced away from me!

Apple pickin’ time is nice,
but what we’ve gathered will suffice.
Me and Sweetie think alike -
We need to add a little spice!

Me and Sweetie pickin’ apples -
Ones for making pies we find.
While my Sweetie climbs the ladder,
I stand watching from behind.

Underneath this autumn sun
I’m so glad I have my guy.
Apple pickin’ time is done.
I’m ready for my sweetie pie!

Seems you picked the right words for this whilst out in the orchard Petal, and I do believe the last line is the very core of this poem lol. Take care, Richard

This fine write reminded me of the orchards in Washington State. Also, the hit song of yesteryear by the late Andrews Sisters came to my mind.
