Apple trees are seeds that you plant when you’re being chaotic

Spreading joy wildly while throwing cores out of a speeding car

“Here!” they like to say to the Earth “I’ll grow here!”

“And there!” they yell pretty wildly “I’ll grow anywhere!”

We’re a resiliant, reliable, pleasant bunch we wonderous

Fruits of Eden

We’ll grow and grow so long as there is a bit of water

A splash of love or two

And a generous helping of freedom

About the only thing apple trees don’t like is secrets

That’s why we had to share our knowledge with Adam and Eve

Because it wasn’t really fair that they didn’t know what clothes were

Or shelter, or how to read and write, or why you’d put an imaginary cat in a box

All the angels and demons got to know so why wouldn’t God

Want humanity to have the fire of life too
