AN APPLE MESSAGE
BY ARTHUR j. BURDICK

The orange faunts its golden disks
Invitingly to view
The lemon stretches forth its fruit
We've none of them for you
But modestly the apple, fair,
Amid its mountain green
Bides, as it were reluctant to
Proclaim itself queen.
AS fragrant as the apples were
OF Dyban old, in truth;
And like the fruit Of Idun, famed,
Perpetuates our youth.
Like, too. Prince Ahmed's apple rare
More precious far than wealth.
To eat dispels the ills Of flesh,
Insuring lasting health.
The golden summer sunshine rare
Is treasured meath their skin.
The pure air of the mountains grand
Is also stored within.
The crispness Of the mornings cool,
The softness Of the eve,
The fullness of the noon-tide, too,
These royal spheres receive.
Their blush the SUMS sweet kisses are;
Their flavor, winds caress
Their fragrance, breath of heaven sent
We mortals here to bless.
Their odor, form, and color, too,
our willing senses please
AS precious as the apples were
OF famed Hesperides
