FALLEN APPLE CUISINE
I watched a family gather
The apples under a tree…
At my Pastor’s house I wondered
If that would do for me.
–
One wouldn’t eat them straight off the ground,
But want to wash them first…
Sweet cider would be nice around
For an overwhelming thirst.
–
Pies made with some crabapple
Are sweet with just enough tart…
My mother’s pie crust would hold it quite well,
For her, pie crust was an art.
–
This year, only the geese indulge
In fallen apples by the road…
For them it is an annual ritual,
Traveling energy being stowed!
