Apple me
a healthy life
bees round my blossoms
a honey in my life
applesauced surprises
but never a pie in my face!

Written for Thursday’s Open Link Night at dVerse, the virtual pub for poets around the globe. Mish hosts and we can post any poem of our choosing or write to her optional prompt, which I chose to do. The optional prompt: write a poem inspired by René Magritte’s painting, Son of Man. I chose to have a bit of fun with the image!

Oh Lillian, this is adorable. Love the much needed lightheartedness only you could pull out of this painting!
