Basking in the sun, looking at sisterâs kid playing and Looking at Apple tree growing in backyard gives so much relief to mind. Itâs the centre of attraction of backyard for many years, to sit under this big apple tree, Beauty of tree is like a human life that grows fruits and give shade to others as token of their love, when colour of apples turn from green to red with increase in density of apples on tree with every passing day made me and my sister so much tempted and wait for apples to ripe and make jars of apples jam but winters around also and in cold frui shred easily with wind.so we had to manage time accordingly coz
just a month before Ripening apples, we were to move to new house that was decided already and apple tree was already decided by nature to ripen on same time of season.
âwe are going to vacant this house next monthâ sister said
âwhat about Applesâ, I asked
âNot in our hands anymore, these are not ripen yetâ, she said with low voice
and I saw towards big green apples on tree and took a deep breath.
Time came when we started packing out stuff to move to new place.
Its already been a month in new house and it came in my mind,
âletâs go and have a look on Apple tree and moreover snow didnât start yetâ, I said to my sister
âwhat if someone already move to that old houseâ she asked
âwe will get permission from them to get our property that belongs to usâ and we both laughed
we decided to go to old house and surprisingly no people around,
we jumped with joy
âNo one moved in this house yet and apple tree is still oursâ
Next day we took a big Empty box and it was time for one of us to climb on tree
âI will climb and will throw apples towards you,you try to catchâ i said to my sister
âshe saidâ ok
but there were too many beautiful big apples in bunches that it could make anyone tired of trying to catch one by one.
so we decided to throw apples on ground and she started picking it one by one.
âThis is easy and funâ she said
there were already too many ripen apples on long grass that were still good to eat.
So sister started picking them up one by one to see and started keeping in cardboard box.
âAaauuuchhhhhâ she screamed and threw an apple aside
and diverted my whole attention from picking apples.
âwhat happened nowâ I asked
âworm on apple that I picked from groundâ she said
I laughed and said âNot our property only, someone else deserves to have tiny bites of this delicious fruitâ
and thatâs reality of nature that someone else also have same rights that is birds and little worms have their right on trees as we humans do.
she said âthere are many worms who already have concerns about their propertyâ and we laughed out loud.
I was so much into beauty of Red and yellow streaks on apples that I was not looking down while throwing it on ground.
An apple fell off very near to her and she screamed âYou gonna hurt me todayâ
âApples donât hurtâ I said
And we laughed again
It was not only Sister talk and laugh, apple tree was also involved in our talk.
âI hope i am not hurting you at allâ I said
â you were about toâ sister said
â I am not concerned about you at all this timeâ I said
and she understood that I was talking to tree while climbing higher and higher on fragile branches of tree.
âDonât you feel like climbing on treeâ I asked
âNo, I am afraid of fallingâ she said
but for me it was another experience to go up on tree and look beauty of ground that was covered with apples and leaves.
And looking on leaves very closely, picking apples in a way that it wonât hurt tree branches while picking apples, made me more fall in love with this tree.
Trees are very beautiful creation of God, part of nature, that make us lively, Trees always stand high with pride for the service of human, very beautiful gift of nature to all lifes on earth.
Beauty of every tree enhances by changing seasons, with wind, rain, sun...
âLife cycleâ that everything on earth is chained with each other to grow and trees gives life to all.
Around the world, seasons change, if you donât know, This is one of beauty of houses in Canada, you can find Fruit trees in backyard of most of houses or near backyard fences, beauty of Nature blossoms in different colours again in Fall season.
That happiness of climbing on apple tree in Love with it..and picking apple one by one was giving smile, laughter and immense happiness to both of us.
I was very busy in picking all good apples And throwing them on ground that I didnât see big cardboard box was about to half already in first 10 minutes.
âDonât you think we should stop picking, itâs too many applesâ she said
âif we wonât pick all,it will go bad coz of fall season is about to done and winters aroundâ.
and from neighbours we came to know that honour of housemay not find anyone yet to move into this house coz of some pending repairs.
âHere we goâ we smirked and ran towards backyard on long grass like two little girls found a pot of gold.
We filled whole big cardboard box with apples but still there were so many apples left on tree.
âLetâs leave these for someone to get happiness if they are lucky enough to notice before all fall on ground before wintersâ
Before jumping down from tree, more and more apples On tree were keep coming in my view and i was not willing to come down.
In about 45minutes sister said âBox is full alreadyâ
I jumped off tree finally that we decided before climbing on tree that no more than one box and that box was big enough to have a big apple stall to sell.
but this fun and all apples were for family and it was good experience of climbing on Apple tree and picking apples so we decided to relish apples with family and friends.
âI will pick this box myselfâ I said and in no time
âI cannot move this box at allâ I said
she laughed at me
coz she already had idea how heavy was box while filling apples into it.
âCan you help me pleaseâ I asked
âNoâ she said and came same time to help to pick this box
and âwe both had big laughterâ
and said with enjoyment
âwe did itâ
and in my thought when I saw tree while going back..âI will miss you alot for giving me all happiness you gave us today, I am taking your memories with us and will relish each passing dayâ
Now sweet fragrance of apples was in whole house and not only in kitchen and lobby  and we all relished apples for atleast a month, made jam.
âsometimes true elation is not in getting something back but in how we enjoyed to get itâ đ
