'An apple a day, ' <br />The prescription goes, <br />'Keeps the doctor away.', <br />And so transfers the evil <br />To doctors. <br />Simpleminded, <br />But it works. <br />The love from Mother Earth <br />Manifests in apples. <br />They cure multitudes of maladies, <br />Suffuse the flesh <br />With clarity and strength, <br />Sharpen the mind <br />To mow down moments <br />With precision. <br />They cured Adam of God.<br /><br />Jan Sand<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/in-praise-of-apples/
