Sunny Apple Core

The sun paired well with the apple 
Sugar
The tartness and sweetness 
Reminded me of the days
And I stepped outside to feel the sun on my face
And the trees and the grass 
All green
And the rainbow umbrella used the spring 
And the water glass was clean 
And then I saw the core of the apple say something to me
Here in the sun 
“Write the memory down” 
Sugar
The apple so pure and sweet and real
And the sun so full of energy 
And life, it’s surreal.
I want to run and play like then
Now I see I can.
Sunny apple day, no rain to borrow the light away.
