APPLE TREES AND ADVENT PRAYERS |
 |
 |
I had three apple trees in my yard in Tolland. The sight of them, along the stone wall, was home to me. In
every season and every year, I watched their lives as they watched mine. Delight and awe struck me this June when I first came through the backyard of the parsonage on 19 Church Street and saw its apple tree. I walked near to it and thought ... perhaps now I am home. In August, as Bob and Ray prepared the house, I welcomed its early apples.
