letra de the crossed apple - louise bogan

Loading...

i’ve come to give you fruit from out my orchard
of wide report
i have trees there that bear me many apples
of every sort:

clear, streaked; red and russet; green and golden;
sour and sweet
this apple’s from a tree yet unbeholden
where two kinds meet, –

so that this side is red without a dapple
and this side’s hue
is clear and snowy. it’s a lovely apple
it is for you

within are five black pips as big as peas
as you will find
potent to breed you five great apple trees
of varying kind:

to breed you wood for fire, leaves for shade
apples for sauce
oh, this is a good apple for a maid
it is a cross

fine on the finer, so the flesh is tight
and grained like silk
sweet burning gave the red side, and the white
is meadow milk
eat it, and you will taste more than the fruit:
the blossom, too
the sun, the air, the darkness at the root
the rain, the dew

the earth we came to, and the time we flee
the fire and the breast
i claim the white part, maiden, that’s for me
you take the rest
