A recipe for Spiced Apple Tea from Bianca of Organic Learning Homeschool:

*Brew camomile tea with one stick of cinnamon and one or two cloves (camomile means earth-apple in Greek)

*Add apple juice and simmer.

Pour into a mug and enjoy!

Also, a William Butler Yeats poem, The Song of Wandering Aengus, shared by Jesse of Spiral Pathways:

I went out in the hazel wood,

Because a fire was in my head,

And cut and peeled a hazel wand,

And hooked a berry to the thread;

And when white moths were on the wing,

And moth-like stars were flickering out,

I dropped the berry in a stream

And caught a little silver trout.

When I laid it on the floor

I went to blow the fire aflame,

But something rustled on the floor,

And some on called me by my name:

It had become a glimmering girl

With apple blossom in her hair

Who called me by my name and ran

And faded through the brightening air.

Though I am old and wandering

Through hollow lands and hilly lands,

I will found out where she has gone,

And kiss her lips and take her hands;

And walk among long dappled grass,

and pluck till time and times are done

The silver apples of the moon,

The golden apples of the sun.
