Poem: Handcraft

I hide my hand from my lover

Dripping in apple’s wine

The season is now morning

The harvest hangs on the vine

I shall pick the fruit

Forgotten by my lover

I shall reap the award

Of the farmers labor

Dance across the leaf

That shines with dew

Hop along the river

A trail we once knew

***
