Why is the sweetest fruit always just out of your reach?
I guess it would be boring if it was always at your feet.
Even with the tallest of ladders it's tantalisingly close,
Filling you with a false sense of hope.
Throwing sticks to dislodge it may bruise it,
Wait for it to fall and you may lose it.
So here's my tip, one helpful little fact
Cut down the tree with a bloody great axe!
