The Pomplemouse and the Lime

This is the pomplemouse that feeds off the lime,
As it scurries back out of the hole in the wall,
to retrieve that great lime that lies up ahead,
it hurries on past the dangers that lie,
to feed it's young family,
before they all die.

If only you knew,
how hard it could be,
to bring back a lime,
to feed your family,
you would understand,
how it would be,
to be left in the cold,
under the old willow tree.

The pomplemouse returns,
with a triumph at last,
and watches the young,
play around in the den,
And the pomplemice eat,
to make them feel strong,
to hurry along.

And then next day,
off again,
the pomplemouse scurries,
out of the den,
and off to the place when the lime will be laid,
to feed his young and mistress he prays,
and if of course that lime aint there,
they will live again in dispare.

I know it's crap but there ya go

Great imagination!

Thise Pictures are of a Pamplemousse not Pomplemouse

I found something here:
http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pamplemousse
Latin name: Citrus maxima
Family Rutaceae

A Google Search of the Botanical Name found...
This, the largest citrus fruit, is known in the western world mainly as the principal ancestor of the grapefruit. As a luscious food, it is famous in its own right in its homeland, the Far East.
Botanically it is identified as Citrus maxima Merr., (C. grandis Osbeck; C. decumana L.). The common name is derived from the Dutch pompelmoes, which is rendered pompelmus or pampelmus in German, pamplemousse in French. An alternate vernacular name, shaddock, now little used, was acquired on its entry into the Western Hemisphere as related below. The current Malayan names are limau abong, limau betawi, limau bali, limau besar, limau bol, limau jambua, Bali lemon, and pomelo.

You will find that the PAMPLEMOUSSE is the french for grapefruit. The POMPLEMOUSE is a small clay mouse like off bagpuss except made by me not bagpuss! Lol

So you named it Pomplemouse? lol so you proved these guys wrong

I went through a phrase of say pomple in front of everything cos i thought it was cute so we have the pomplemouse and the pomplefly.

I see... So the Pomple prefix has a meaning in it's own right

NOT THE POMPLEMOUSE! *hides in a sock drawer*

BERLIMEY this STINKS!

I don't really get what you'r discussing about...

*wants to be a native speaker*

That poem is cute by the way. in reguards to the picture of the fruit that looks alot like a blood orange. its like a orange but its pink or red on the inside.

The middle photo looks like a Pomelo to me... It's grown in the Malaysia, amongst other nations. The Pamplemousses is a region in Mauritius.

This is an extremely unusual, yet highly enlightening discussion...
