2009 Poetry
Picking apples off a tree,
on a wobbly ladder as I reach,
tasting good when they are free.
Much larger than a pea,
not as fuzzy as a peach.
Picking apples off a tree.
Here’s a thing you must agree,
good exercise for my teeth.
Tasting good when they are free.
Juices flowing like the sea,
though not effecting my slow speech.
Picking apples off a tree.
Listen closely when I decree,
for I’m not one to ever preach.
Tasting good when they are free.
Here’s the story don’t disagree,
it’s a thing that’s easy to teach.
Picking apples off a tree,
tasting good when they are free.
