Apples Naive Distress blows hard upon my sail And the riggings cry out in wail. Straining to stand the strength of dare Hard pressed to guess the why and where. Bolts of streaming lightening strike Thunder screams across the night Phantoms dance upon the dense Fiddlers fiddle on the fence. And echoes fear, holds hands with me For I am blind and cannot see The saving sight of greenery Beyond the shadows mystery Each scream of rage grows whiter white The locks of hair that were delight And skin that turns like seas to gray Within the terms of times display To those that search the ship I leave, The last of my apples naive |

Very nicely written. Leaves me wanting to call a search and rescue though! The sea holds many secrets. Mysterious and calling. I like this very much. Sincerely, Rwood |

my goodness...what did you and Randy eat before bed *L* Well, its apples again is it?... I dont think applesauce is gonna cut it tho... Im thinking more like a Spicy Cinnamon Fried Apple to go with the raspberry tea... or a Carmel coated Dandy Candied Apple for Randy... and as for naive ... you are far too wise for me to believe youd sink in seas of naive Im thinking for you Ill make some Wisdom Waldorf ... with extra Walnuts and *winkiewinkies* LOL ![]() which leads me to you being the apple of my eye and theres nothing left to do but bake you a pie ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() only you could give love that satisfies the soul... |

Now any time you go writing about apples and then include the word naive ... you gotta know that JM isn't far behind. Of course we all know that her apple cart has had a sail on it for years now and that is why we are so wonderfully fond of her. OOOPS.........back to the poem!!!! Very well expressed and I truely enjoyed to cadence to it, but then again, you have always had a way of mixing a tune with your creations even if it isn't intentional. Well done sir. |

very nicely done.. There is society where none intrudes, by the deep sea, and music in its roar. |
