Songs Apple,
My fairy child,
Strawberry blonde
Burnt orange by a summer sun
Twinkled eyed and
Freckled chin
Elongated smile,
The door to your laughter,
I read you tales and you’d tell me yours
Oh Apple…
Where are you now?
Oh Apple, you are a never-ending story,
A green eyed angel with invisible wings,
And a mother’s dream
You paint your world,
Onto my skin,
“Mommy look what I did!”
What a graceful wild,
Starstruck wonder you are!
Don’t ever,
Ever stop amazing me…
Oh Apple, oh child,
Oh look what you did!
You’re a Picasso, a Dali, a regular Van Gough!
Who’s covered in marker,and glitter, and mud
The upsy spins got you thinking again…
Oh Apple…
Where are you now?
Oh Apple, you are a never-ending story,
A green eyed angel with invisible wings,
And a mother’s dream
The backyard’s our jungle,
To a safari or a hiking in the woods,
Cowboys and Indians in the living room,
In the kitchen you’re the chef and I’m the helper,
The attic, our treasure chest
If you were a prince, I was a queen
If you were an artist, I was the canvas
If you were an inventor, I was the tester
Oh Apple, oh child,
Never stop believing,
Never stop thinking,
Never stop asking,
God’s got a special plan for you I know…
The day you said I was “pretty as a mermaid”,
We were cutting paper stars,
You strung’em and I hung’em,
On your ceiling,
And you couldn’t stop gazing…
That night,
Under the moonshine,
You were PeterPan,
Trying to fly away,
Off to Neverland,
And that starlit sky got you thinking again,
“Mommy, let’s live on the moon.”
Oh Apple…
Where are you now?
Oh Apple, you are a never-ending story,
A green eyed angel with invisible wings,
And a mother’s dream
