Confessions of An Apple.....
I had the most beautiful apple in my hand that day.... The sun was shining through the windows and it felt as thought it could give me a tan if stood still long enough. It was so bright and refreshing, especially after feeling time stood still in the biting cold of a Northern B.C. winter. As I stood there almost about to bite into the delicious looking red apple in my hand, I was caught in awe at how it reflected the sun shining on me. It was gleaming and proud. Suddenly I found myself personifying this lovely morsel and wondering if had it been a "real" something, what would it be like. Ok, I know, sounds weird. But it was so shiny...I had to take it outside and look at it in the sun. Then I saw the freshly fallen snow on the ground. It had no footprints and was totally unaware of it's fate to be stomped on, sled on, balled up and thrown and laid upon. It was so white. It too was shiny but not like the apple...more like diamonds. How could I resist? So taken by the strong red apple and the glistening white snow...They had to meet!
So I went and got my camera and thus began the photo shoot of Confessions of an Apple. The pictures were beautiful. I put that apple all over the yard, posing it as if it were going to see the pictures itself. I was so fascinated by those striking colors. Then I got a great shot, ripe and red, perched on a green branch, angled from the ground with a perfect blue sky behind and the gleaming white snow beneath it..It was beautiful.
I was done..
I ate the apple!
It was just as tasty as it looked. That apple had a good life!
