I take a bite of my apple,
its insides golden,
A crisp like texture and a sweet mild juice rolls over my tongue,
This apple is delicious!
Its flesh breaks from my grinding teeth,
As I pressure it, flavors fill my mouth,
Sweet, savory, tangy juices,
Oh what a delight!

Yet the apple is soon devoured,
No more but a core,
A cylinder-like shape.
It holds the seeds of the fruit,
Small brown seeds,
Once rumored to be a poison to eat.

I throw the core away,
Reaching into my bag,
I pull out another,
Biting in and savoring the silky crunch,
*KKKKRAUCHT*
Breaking the delicate red skin along with gold speckling across,
The flesh is now open to the world.

I take a bite of my apple,

A crisp like texture and a sweet mild juice rolls over my tongue,
This apple is delicious,
Its flesh breaks from my grinding teeth,
As I pressure it, flavors fill my mouth,
Sweet, savory, tangy juices,
Oh what a delight!
