Apple Pie

Missing image
Seeing that apple on the tree,
I’ll have none of you pie.
Knowing what you’ve got up your sleeve,
I do not want to die.

You say that it’s not poison
and our punishment’s not death.
But I can hear the serpent’s tail,
he waits with baited breath.

    I really enjoyed reading this poem.. I love your take on the prompt. I needed a laugh today and this really did it. love the humor in this, its perfect. ahh yes and the serpent has lots of patience and more than likely will wait a long time. Fantastic job with the poem

    good luck in the contest
