My Red Delicious Apple

Unblemished veneer caresses each fold
Glossy sheen with silken strands manifold
Face brimming with rosy hue; underneath satin sheaths scrolled  
Coarse fibers with satiating nutrients doled

My eyes peel each savory layer, delicately kneading each fiber apart   
My nostrils intoxicated by sweet, pungent aroma your core doth impart   
My fingers fondle and swab each, soft, curvaceous part
My lips drivel as the sugary juices from your mellow stalk doth depart
