An Incredible Treat

Anytime of day

A good late night snack

A quick pick me up

I love a nice crisp apple

It takes a bite out of my day

Gala and Honey Crisp are my favorites

When I was younger

There was nothing like a nice Delicious apple

That would make my mouth water

Lately I found them too big and a bit dry

A green apple would nock my socks off

The sour taste was a good eye opener

Any apple will really do

How would you like an apple right about now ?

For years it was easy snack

I would eat right down to the core

Until there was almost nothing left

I could quickly grab it and go

Now I have my wife spoiled too

She loves when I surprise her with an apple

I cut it up and cover it with some whip cream

It never interfered with supper

Right about now

What kind of apple would please you ?

Kari Poulsen Make sure you wash the apples really good. I didn't realize how many insecticides they use to kill bugs and diseases that could harm the apples. Thank you for reading and sharing. Growing up I remember the saying Have an apple a day keeps the doctor away. I wonder if that created my love for apples subconsciously.

Oh, a honey crisp for sure. They are my favorites. I also used to love the Delicious, but they are a bit dry, as you say.

Gypsy Rose Lee Apples are special. What are some of your favorites? I love apple pie and ice cream combination. Isn't it great we can get apples all year round. They go so far for so little. Thank you for your nice comments.

I love anything apple from cake to pie to juice.

Audrey Hunt I forgot about Fujis they are lovely. Apples are best when they are nice and juicy. I can hear the crunch in my head when you sink your teeth into the skin. Thank you for reading and sharing. Hope this year is going well for you.

Love apples! Love your poem about apples. I usually go for Fujis but I'll eat any kind. In fact now would be a perfect time to indulge myself.
