Apples represent sin
From Adam and Eve til today.
Remember, with the poison apple
Snow White lost her way.  

Yet Ben Franklin praised the fruit
As the key to avoid strife.
John Chapman planted apple trees
Wandering the country during his life.

How can it be a sin?
Enjoying this fruit everyday
Over seven thousand types of apples
Such a wonderful, vast array.  

Picking apples is such a wonderful task
Plucking fruit from the trees
Imagine harvesting baskets of fruit
With a gentle wind blowing through the leaves

So, enjoy the Granny Smiths and the Honeycrisps
Savor the Haralsons and Sweet Sixteens.
Apples make us so much better
Making us healthy human beings.
