Holding On

The apples, amazed

by an early autumn snow

still “hanging in there”

It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails.

1 Corinthians 13:7-8a (NIV)

    Those are some very large crab apples David. Just the right amount of tart but sweeten after the first frost. There is nothing like eating a frozen apple off the tree. It takes some very cold weather to really freeze them. I actually thought we had picked them all until the leaves fell of in the snow…so yes, hanging in there is the best line.

      The best line of a haiku is often the last one—if the poet gets it right. It’s amazing this many apples 🍎 were able to hide amongst the leaves.

    LOL…Let me amend that statement…The grandkids said they had all the apples picked off the tree. I just looked at it from a distance with full foliage. It made the deer happy later as they ferment before dropping off.

    I never knew you had a poetry blog! So excited to find this site. 😃 (p.s. Sorry if I accidentally followed and unfollowed multiple times, my computer wasn’t showing it working).
