Notes About The Poem

Listen to poem:

Apple Pies

“If you wish to make an apple pie from scratch, you must first invent the universe." Carl Sagan (1934-1996)

Apple Pies

A welcome task past wayward primes where plucked delights
yon mangoes, guavas, and papayas...
stands a Granny Smith apple tree.

Flour demonstrate a chopping board, rolling pin and
some countertop rests deep dishes packed midst
smooth dough amongst rooted chunks of butter,
few apples blended plus brown sugar, the rest sliced.

What is the stanch embodiment of a well-rounded kitchen's use?

Inventiveness, great apple pie.
