Apples

Have you ever heard about apples? Then let me tell you:

Girls are like
apples on trees. The best
ones are at the top of the tree.
The boys don't want to reach for
the good ones because they are afraid
of falling and getting hurt. Instead, they
just get the rotten apples from the ground
that aren't as good, but easy. So the apples
at the top think something is wrong with
them, when in reality, they're amazing.
They just have to wait for the right
boy to come along, the one
who's brave enough
to climb
all the way
to the top
of the tree.

Fortunately, the young men with the courage and strength to make it to the top are the ones to wait for. In fact, they think enough of themselves not to settle and not to take the easy way. I feel so sorry for the apples that hang low and have fallend from the tree -- they were meant to be beautiful and precious, too.
