Sour Apples

Posting Date is: Wednesday September 23, 2009

Take a bite out of life

surprised at what's inside

could be bitter

could be sweet

warm or as cold as ice

Sayings....

I've heard plenty

that make sense...

confronted with a situation

Oh how soon do we forget

Horses brought to the well

none seem to want a drink

extend ones hand

attempt to pull one up

why do they choose to sink

Saving is impossible

if one does not want to be free

easy does it... do not push it

simply let them be

Never made lemonade

out of lemons dealt...

Why apply heat

if it will easily melt

Count the blessings

let it go... run with all

that's still left
Barrel half full

of sour apples

residual taste remains

on ones breath

All apples may be spoiled

by a single worm

It is possible to find one

not gone bad at all

Sweetness

in it's taste even after

it withstands a storm

search and search

until you find a

perfect, uncorrupted one
