“It is remarkable how closely the history of the apple is connected with that of man.” – Henry David Thoreau
“With an apple I will astonish Paris.” – Paul Cèzanne
“And there never was an apple, in Adam’s opinion, that wasn’t worth the trouble you got into for eating it.” – Neil Gaiman

La pomme
Being the
Brains in
Le jardin
Eve picked
La pomme
Hunger can
Do that to a
Woman
Being that there
Was no health care
Available
She took care of
Herself
Leaving
Adam
To his violent
Abattage
des oiseaux,
Cerf
And all that was
Wild and free
L’ homme
Blâme
Ève
Pourtant le
Sang est sur
Ses mains
Et la femme
Est un avec
La nature

Bisous,
Léa
Nice look at Adam and Eve here Lea – also, I particularly like the Neil Gaiman quote. 🙂
Thanks Holly! Just having a bit of fun with an apple… 🙂
A very intruiging poem Lea!
You will be writing fully in French soon, having us all pouring over French/English dictionaries! Lol
Love the quotes as ever 🙂
Love Christine
Xxx
You are so very kind Christine. I have one written all in French but have asked my teacher to look at it. He has been for almost a month… French time that is! 🙂
I needn’t tell you about my quote addiction now do I?
Love,
Lea
