Apples Bring Hearts Home
Ekphrastic: Nature Morte Aux Pommes
Painting by Alfred Sisley
Red, gold apples lay
Crispy, crunchy picked that day
Mama's orchard farm
Paring with her knife
Her son brought home his new wife
To show her their farm
An inheritance
Saw to them as excellence
Kept with family
Drifting through like doves
Apple pie carried with love
Family is home
