Paw Paw

Now when you pick a pawpaw
Or a prickly pear
And you prick a raw paw
Next time beware
Don't pick the prickly pear by the paw
When you pick a pear
Try to use the claw
But you don't need to use the claw
When you pick a pear of the big pawpaw
Have I given you a clue ?

The bare necessities of life will come to you
They'll come to you!

The garden of my sister and brother in law in Kenya is full of amazing plants and wildlife and these lines reminded me of my November 30 blip from last year!
