In an Apple Tree
(from Marigold Garden: 1885)In September, when the apples were red,
To Belinda I said,
“Would you like to go away
To Heaven, or stay
Here in this orchard full of trees
All your life?” And she said, “If you please
I'll stay here where I know,
And the flowers grow.”
Kate Greenaway (1846-1901)
English Victorian artist and writer
