My Apple.

As a child I would visit this Apple Orchard every evening to take a walk and spend some time with myself.

One such evening while I was on my regular walk I spotted a beautiful Apple hanging from the tree....it was so red and shining that I wanted to pluck the Apple and keep it with me. The Apple was too high for me to reach and I was too young to climb the tree....so i decided to have it one day when I can climb the tree.

My visits to the orchard was now only confide to the Tree with the Beautiful Apple, I would spend hours looking at the Apple, imagined holding it and keeping it with me and not eating. Everyday it looked better and my want for it increased as the days passed.

One day on my routine visit to the Apple Tree or as I called it My Apple Tree, I found My Apple missing from the tree. First I thought I had reached the wrong tree and started to look for the correct one but something within me kept telling me I was at the correct Tree and the Apple was gone.

Yes soon I Realized the Apple was gone for ever, someone else had climbed the Tree and taken it. Still I see that Apple on every tree, climb it and take it and then realize it is not what I once wanted to have.
