Pink Lady! Ye blush as I pass,

On outside...skin appearing tough;

But inside sweetness is confirmation

Love has no wish for any other,

 

Sharing this moment my beauty,

Taste buds dance, savouring that

Refreshing way you make me feel,

In throes of hunger I'm tickled to

Have made your acquaintance.

They are my favourite apples. I'm not keen on really sour ones. Pink ladies are much more friendly and deserving of an ode. I think they'd be very pleased. Rachel :)

Lovely little tribute to a very modern apple. They are a little pricey but so lovely to look at and sweet to taste. Is it me or are they getting smaller?

Thanks Rachel,

Hey! You know what they say; 'an apple a day keeps the doctor away.' I agree sour apples don't do a thing for me either. Give me sweet any day. wink

Thanks for reading and sharing your thoughts.

Hi Jane,

I'm not sure about them getting smaller, but maybe you're right. They are a little treat each day though.

Glad you thought it was a tribute, because I had fun writing it.

Many thanks for stopping by to read and let me know.

Jenny your poem immediately made me think of Robert Burns,

“My love is like a red, red rose, that's newly sprung in June, my love is like a melody that's sweetly played in tune”. Imagine you could write like that hey!

See you && Nolan

That's such a beautiful poem and I would love to be able to write like Robert Burns. I'm touched that this little ode reminded you of his work Nolan. 

It makes writing so worthwhile when you get such a nice comment.

Thank you so much.
