Evening Bite




evening stroll
apples dangle
curving branches
no leaves nor twigs
conceal its
gleaming color

though shadowy dark,  
fresh faced, they 
sway, mocking
restraints
in tidy small boxes.
no sun

they burst ripe full
brushing tongue 
along my neck
whispering throaty 
promises

enticing me to
come closer

pluck me


do I take just
one small
bite?
