The Date

Date
I grew in Asia, ages past;
Africa's deserts brown and vast
Were made less cruel by my shade;
Oil, drink and wood from me are made.
The ancient Jews in chanting psalms
Carried my green, symbolic palms. 

Dates growing on a tree.
See ''Color Bunches of Dates'' and
''The Bible Botanical'' listing and
