Nor, that was amazing by all means! :)

You once told me that my heart
will, in time, rippen and redden, too.

^^

"rippen" should be "ripen" :)

that when it sweatens it will
tilt the branches of my thoughts
a bit towards the ground
and dream of freedom

^^

here, I LOVED this stanza! that is brilliant, my next week nomination...:)

that someday
it'll fall, roll in glee
and dream of some
kinder hands
to catch it

^^

True! :) but a full stop after "catch it" hon would help...:)

You once told me
that until my heart
is bitten till the core
It will not grow roots
and I will not know
how precious is home.

^^

I would replace "until" with "when" :)

I LOVED the repetition of "You once told me"

five! and a nomination! :)

And yessssssssssssssssss another thing! :)

the "t" in both "that"s should be capitalized. :)

awesomeness! awesomeness! xD

"You once told me that my heart
will, in time, ripen and redden, too."
^ Not sure about the many pauses in the second stanza. I think you could leave "in time" away, as you're already saying "will", which indicated a possibility of the future. Besides, omitting these words would mean one pause less, thus a better flow.
Of course creativity is a very important factor for opening lines, as they draw the reader in. I think you did a fairly nice job there. "Ripen and redden", I like the sound of this, and these effective verbs directly remind of an apple. Which in turn reminds me of family relationships, and of course your title. Although your title is simple, the reader knows how personal it as and that I admire.

"that when it sweetens it will
tilt the branches of my thoughts
a bit towards the ground
and dream of freedom"
^ I really liked the thought of a sweetening fruit, that of course becomes heavier, and therefore pulls your branches nearer to the ground. Is this about your thoughts being too rebellious in the sky, and being told that they should near the ground; play safe? =p Not sure, but it seems befitting of your character.
That's why I got a bit confused about the last line. They just popped up there and I'm not sure how to connect them to your previous metaphor. Too direct and I don't think the personification of this heart/fruit helps here. I would have loved to see you carrying on with your metaphor, in stead of directly telling the reader about your heart's supposed desires.

"that someday
it'll fall, roll in glee
and dream of some
kinder hands
to catch it"
^ See, you went on with your metaphor here, and I liked that. Then came the dreaming part again and I was awakened from admiration.

"You once told me
that until my heart is
bitten to the core
It will not grow roots
and I will not know how precious
is home."
^ Nice ending, I liked the sudden darkness of it ("bitten to the core") and the wisdom which many grandparents teach us about. Even my parents always tell me to appreciate "home".

I see admiration towards your grandfather in this poem, and I appreciate that because many people don't see their grandparents as important. I also see that you're perhaps pondering the rightness of your grandfather's words ... But I don't think you should really be worrying about his message. I'm confident you've already known so all along, just look at the advice you always give me during conversations. ;)

I really liked this, with all your fruity metaphors. :)

The only stanza that seems a bit weak to me is the third stanza, where you repeat "and dream" for a second time. It's like a dream within a dream, which is a bit confusing.

Overall, an excellent write from you.

The personification was good in this poem. that makes the reader about deep thinking and involving themselves. its a nice piece a bit tough for me to understand maybe because the words are beyond my thoughts.

A really metaphorical piece of art, like always.

This was so deep. I like how smooth it went, and how, by the means of flashback, you really got me goosebumps.

amazing

I enjoyed reading this and I have to say the last stanza is very powerful and wise

You once told me
that until my heart is
bitten to the core
It will not grow roots
and I will not know how precious
is home.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
It is as if to say that we need to go through the bad things in life so we can know when to appreciate the good.

Well written
