Sweet Rendezvous

Orchard of rosy apples, ripe and sweet,
gleaming radiance in picturesque fields.
trees weighed down in the bounty treat,
gifts wrapped in love, reckoning yields
squashy white flesh in crimson shields.

cute plump cheeks, clustered ruby balls.
Who painted them red? brimming galore
in shadow of summer, an autumn befalls.
Bushels and cartons teeming to the store,
the golden and green, delicious ever more.

Joy plucked and picked in scarlet glitter,
wind, frost and rain tempered all through.
enchanting aroma of cinnamon in butter
with baskets of apples, it's picnic, Yahoo!
Solace of a sanctuary, sweet rendezvous.
