Apple Blossom Time As the icy cold of winter gives way to days of spring The trees begin to blossom and the birds all start to sing And so begins a very lovely special time of year When nature sings the sweetest song that you will ever hear Out among the apple trees as the buds begin to bloom The fragrance of the orchard fills the air with sweet perfume I listen to the soft and gentle buzzing of the bees As they dart from flower to flower in the branches of the trees As the sun peeks through the tree tops on a warm and sunny day I’ll find a cool and shady spot where I can go and lay And daydream to my hearts content throughout the day so long While listening to a chorus of the apple blossom song As the fragrance of the blossom petals softly fill the air The chances are you’ll find me dreaming lazily out there Somewhere in the apple orchard feeling quite sublime In the coolness of the evening at apple blossom time |

Stephen...Enjoyed this poem. I never smelled apple blossoms but I have smelled orange blossmans and they sure fill the air with their sweet perfume. Thanks for sharing...Paul ~~To share my poems with you is to share my heart with you~~ Paul |

You make me want to go there. You describe this in such a lovely way. I've only been to one apple orchard and it was when I was in elementary school so very long ago. A very relaxing scene here. Enjoyed! "How much is real? So much to question |

The apple orchard was one of my favorite places as a child. |
