A beautiful collection of poems about the apple, although you went a little afield with "An apple Eve knew not" and "The apple of my eye is passing fair", but I loved each and every one of them. In fact, "Where the flagstones end" made my stomach growl, so now I have to go and get a snack - I believe I still have some Fuji apples left.

I wanted to comment not so much on the story, but the writing. Thinking about your writing style which, at least for this story, has a label. It immediately struck me, this is soft writing. I should explain the label, not really for a seasoned author like yourself, but for the benefit of others. I can't take up the space to explain the detail, so here is an extract from and link to an explanation of soft writing. With a soft opening, you’re beginning your story in the day-to-day for your character, the average experience. We’re familiar with the archetypes of plot, of which the most basic is “character exists, something happens to change up the ordinary.” A soft opening isn’t a departure from this, but rather the where we move the focus. With a soft opening, we’re going to start with an increased amount of attention on the “character exists” part of that story, setting up our player(s) and what their daily existence is like before we jump into the “change.” http://https://maxonwriting.com/2015/09/25/being-a-better-writer-hard-and-soft-openings/ It seems to me you do this perfectly and that makes for an engrossing and captivating story which draws in the reader. There is drama, but it's subdued, there is action, which is a slow build, this is not a story that starts with the hard opening of some dramatic incident, rather it is the gentle revelations peeled back to show a life that's been lived. It's got sub plots a plenty and is really well crafted.

Thank you for sharing such a great story! Looking forward to the contuation!

After a brief pause, we pick up where we left off. Attack!

You just a little bit naughty

Danae Naldau, Grand Duchy of Malkania Danae Dannkas nodded approvingly to the maid who had just finished doing her hair. She uttered a polite thank you, then sent the maid on her way, nodding again to her reflection for reassurance. The maid had done a first-rate job, especially remembering that Danae's hair was not the easiest to comb. Shoulder-length blonde hair tended to bend into defiant waves, which required precision and willpower to style into the latest trend in Naldau's high

Like Halloween, Brandon and I planned on hosting Thanksgiving dinner for the extended family. This group was quite a bit smaller. The DeMarcos had made other plans, and the kids didn't invite friends. Carson couldn't come down from Boston, either. My parents attended. With only fifteen people, we decided to do it at home after considering, then dismissing, the idea of renting a room and having it catered. Many more people would have caused us to flip that decision. Mason's wife, Murenda, offered
