An apple a day Time rings out for you and me Outside the garden and the tree. Served a plate of expedite From an apple and a bite Now we blunder in a daze, Full of roads that form a maze. Spading sand against the tide, Time and tide that we abide. In this circle of extreme Like a fantasy or dream, Time and term and term again Filled with longing and Amen. Change continues into strange Ever making the exchange Till the sun will pass away Serving apples on a tray And we eat one every day Just to pass the term away.

Now we blunder in a daze, Full of roads just like a maze. Spading sand against the tide, Time and tide that we abide Great flow. Really liked this part. Thanks for sharing. |

Seymour~ Returning to the apple tree - I am tempted once again - to take a bite of life - and hold it deep within. Your thoughts are so provoking of my own. Thank you, dear poet. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |

...and if the bite were then not taken would we ever feel forsaken... so, so good, dear Sy! Sunny ~~~Keep your face to the sunshine and you cannot see the shadow. Helen Keller ~~~ When you want to be loved, look within...KRJ |
