When on the ground red apples lie
In piles like jewels shining,
And redder still on old stone walls
Are leaves of woodbines twining.

Additional quotes by Helen Hunt Jackson

Father, I scarcely dare to pray,
So clear I see, now it is done,
That I have wasted half my day,
And left my work but just begun.

Bee to the blossom, moth to the flame;
Each to his passion; what's in a name?

Like a blind spinner in the sun,
I tread my days;
I know that all the threads will run
Appointed ways;
I know each day will bring its task,
And, being blind, no more I ask.

When on the ground red apples lie In piles like jewels shining, And redder still on old stone walls Are leaves of woodbines twining. - Helen Hunt Jackson
