Picture Perfect

I sunk my teeth in
And chomped loudly
I pulled away
juice dribbling down my chin

My macintosh apple
Red as a rose
Sweet as sugar
Juicy like an orange
Shiny like lip gloss
Deformed like a blob
Crunched like chips
Perfect as a picture
Tasted like Heaven

My perfect little apple
Reminds me of the 
Great things our planet 
Has to offer... 
Just like our own little Heaven
We just have to look a little harder
