An apple orchard
On a chilly October day
Watching family members
Romp and play
Climbing the mountain
To get a better view
Of the fall leaf colors and
Sparkling rocks strewn
Across the mountain top
Now down to the valley we go
Picking bags in hand
To the apple trees below
Heavy laden
With red delights
We reach
As high as we might
Grab a dark red apple,
Push up and
Twist gently
Wha La!
Fresh deliciousness in hand
Apple picking in New Hampshire
