The Story Made New

 

Plumes of petals

like white feathers—

I swear the apple tree

will burst into song

and take wing.

 

High in its boughs

hide the sweetest apples.

I’ll pick one for you,

plump and red 

as your lips.

 

Climb with me

among the leaves;

none will see we share

late summer’s bliss

with our first kiss.
