Pics and Apples

A lovely family outing on an apple orchard roam It's not a place for shouting or for staring at one's phone The autumn breeze is blowing and the scenery, divine if one more text, I'm going to just make her iPhone mine If dearest, darling daughter cannot put her cell away then into the river water it may take a dip today My warnings are not sticking one more selfie, we might grapple and with all this Apple Pic’ng she’s not picked a single apple!
