Outside I have an apple tree
It’s really super, you’ve got to see.
For every day, every year
I play my games just right here.
In spring, I trample every blossom
Oh, it is totally awesome!
In summer, I sing on a whim
And swing from limb to limb.
In autumn, I pick its fresh ripe fruit
And eat them on a curving root.
In winter, when its branches bend
I make a silly snowman friend.
And when the blossoms again appear
I know I can start a whole new year.
Wonderful, Lydia! I love the changes in the seasons and the rhyme scheme.
Thanks. I like the seasons too.
That’s pretty good, Lydia. I like it!
Thanks for reading my poem. I hope you will share something too.
That’s a really sweet poem Lydia! Thank you for sharing! What inspired you to write it?
Thank you! Just looking out to my backyard. We don’t have any apple trees but we have lot’s of others.
Nice poem!

Thanks for reading this Neva. I’m glad you liked it.
Beautiful poem, Lydia👍🏻🥰
Wow…what a great poem, Lydia! Great imagination! Love it.
This Apple tree poem had a good continuity to it. Each new month brings in an evolving year into the life & pleasure of having this tree. It was made very special to the readers, as I’ m sure the author desired . A story was given to us in in this sweet short observance of a delightful tree.
Thank you, Mrs. Galloway, Auntie Susie, and Mrs. Thomas for your encouraging comments.
Nice picture! Great rhymes!
