The Fruit of Life
March 5, 2016
Only to become an apple once more
The bud is born
Baby begins to blossom
Delicate flower dependent on its mother
Months and years fly by
A child walks
and an apple sprouts
She begins school
It is sweet, but tart
She starts high school
The apple is yellow, but fully grown
Goes to college, and begins her career
Red, glossy and fully mature
He picks her
and she marries the gentleman of her dreams
And a bud is born
© Haley F., Macomb, MI
