Apples coming in

One evidence of the power of poetry is that years after you first encounter certain images, they remain with you, and indeed stay with you for the rest of your life. One such image for me is "apples coming in", from Robert Frost's "After Apple-Picking":

My instep arch not only keeps the ache,
It keeps the pressure of a ladder-round.
I feel the ladder sway as the boughs bend.
And I keep hearing from the cellar bin
The rumbling sound
Of load on load of apples coming in.


Last night, I got under the lights again, and earned a bunch of apples :-)
