Sorry, it is "pomegranate." I spelled it incorrectly up there.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pomegranate

When I was a kid, a neighbor lady grew pomegranates
and figs in her yard in Mississippi. It hardly ever snowed there.
I think I saw snow twice up to the age of 14
and it was an inch or two of wet snow that melted the next day.

We peeled the pomegranates and just bit into them,
sucked out the juice and spit out the seeds and pulp.
Blackberry seeds are no problem to me, so I guess
pomegranate seeds are about the same, but the pulp
is rather obnoxious after you've depleted the juice.

Lately, I drink pomegranate juice and blue berry juice
hoping to stave off any more heart disease and ...
what's that other disease called ... uh ...
wait a minute ... I'll think of it ...oh yeah ... Alzheimer's ...
just a mite longer.
