A seat beneath the apple tree

Caleb.A

Sit beneath the apple tree

where the apple falls far from.

Sit beneath the apple tree

where the apple falls hard from, gossip

 amongst the tainted leaves

where the whispers sit far from,

take your leave amongst the leaves

and an apple you bit half from.

To the core,

To the core,

bite the apple, to the core.

Lay rest in the shadow of the whispers;

make your bed in the bed of before.

              Intriguing post some different interpretations for me.

              Eating the apple to the core and laying in the bed of before.

              Perhaps it reminded me a little of the saying, if you keep doing what you have always done...
