The Red Apple Seductress

I was on a long walk

green fields and blue skies

I was feeling hungry

reaching for my packed lunch

I picked up an apple

it felt cool and smooth

shiny bright red unblemished

her subtle fragrance was unmistakably feminine 

My teeth sank into the perfect skin

sweet juices ran into my mouth

I sliced off a small a chunk

it was crunchy

I chewed slowly

more juices flowed

her aroma exploded in my nostrils

eat some more she whispered

my second bite was bigger

juices ran down my chin

I chewed fast and loud

gasping for air between bites

the faster I ate 

the more I wanted

until there was just the core

I tossed it into the field

maybe it will grow into a tree

I should take a look in a few years

if I can ever remember

to go back there

I will never forget though

how that smooth red lady apple

seduced me into eating her flesh

and left me wondering why she picked me to disperse her offspring
