The apple tree
In a little hole in soft dirt she planted a tree holding his hand she said it's for you and me
Like their love for each other the tree quickly grew
He and she with the tree no longer made two
Kisses and hugs were their thing to share
as the time passed the tree was no longer bare
The branches stretched out all the way to the sky
but the apples couldn't be reached and started to die
Instead of a lot they ate them a little
without care and nurture the tree became brittle
The apples shrunk and started to wither
But not so for the love that he had to give her
She came across another fruit that changed her taste
Delicious no more the apples went to waste
When the fruit goes out of season it will not taste as sweet
She will then remember how tasty those apples were to eat
He knows she knows he loved her to his very core
Why can't things be like the way they were before.
It turned out that the soft dirt could not support the tree
A stable foundation may have been different for he and she
The taste of Juicy Red Apples we know is hard to forget
He knows the tree is still alive, in that he can bet
Will she ever return to the apples or just let it be
Will she ever want to plant another apple tree
