The Coconut Tree -Iv Poem by Parameswaran Nair Damodaran Nair

The Coconut Tree -Iv

Rating: 5.0


Many ways the tree is made use of includes
Extraction of toddy for ordinary sweet drink
And for processing intoxicating beverages.
Arrack distilled from coconut toddy excels

Jaggery and vinegar made from the toddy
Ranks to organic products used in cooking
South Asian's dishes without coconut flake
Or coconut milk are considered incomplete

Every part of the tree is used as fire-wood
Toys dear to children can be made from the leaf
Which unlike plastic products are degradable
Above all the tree has abundant employment potential
