Luscious red apples dangle helplessly
Sway sway sway
Hoping for relief from their struggle
They cling furiously
A thin thread holds them to life
Sway sway sway
Thin threads tend to break.
Should a thread be broken,
The life of the apple will be disastrously deadened
Should it fall it should be destroyed
Rotting on the grass below the tree
Decomposing into the earth to become one with it once again
Such is the life of any living thing
Swaying swaying swaying
Should that thin thread terminate?
The line is as thin as that of the thread
An apple tree must drop apples
For the survival as the tree as a whole
As it is for any living group of beings
Swaying swaying swaying
