THE APPLE TREE
Some gather many apples
Others share the loot
Some reach up for higher prize
Struggle hardÂ
To reach a fruit
Some scatter seeds to barren soil
Some sew the seeds with care
Nurture more trees
Strong and true
With all their loving toil
Some waste the apples
Waste the seeds
Careless
Let them spoil
Others ever thankful
Glad
And good jams they shall boil
Some share the stumps with birds and bees
Others, thankless, throw away
Blown off by the mighty wind
To fester in the day
But the apple treeÂ
Bears well it's plight
Looks down on all
From majestic height
Observes us here
In all our forms
Sees hope and joyÂ
Sees greed and fight
It graces us forgiveness
CompassionÂ
And great love
ContinuesÂ
To bestow on us
Great bounty
From above
