A fine, sensuous haiku.
I love the descriptiveness of this one very much.
I like this haiku a lot.
one of the best that I’ve read today. Great.
A beautiful haiku. You’re lucky to live in Alabama where usually frost is the worst risk to apples. :-)
apples, apples, apples
a lawn chair supports a branch –

Delicate, playful wit. Nice!

even through her alpaca sweater–
nipples rising
