--Lord Willing (Lord, Thy Will, not mine). Shalom and blessings

 
Oh, The Cross
(an early church hymn)
 

Oh, the Cross, the Savior dying, 
Wounded sore, and faint, and sighing, 
Bowed beneath the burden lying 
On His spotless soul. 
'Tis thy load He falters under; 
Speaks not heav'n in wrathful thunder? 
Earth! behold the sight, and wonder, 
Love has borne the rod. 
Love has borne the rod. 

Canst thou love the sin that bound Him, 
Threw the robe of scorn around Him, 
Mocking bowed the knee, and crowned Him 
With the cruel thorn? 
Jesus, at Thy feet relenting, 
Bring I all my guilt repenting, 
All my cruel sin lamenting; 
Christ, my sin forgive! 
Christ, my sin forgive!

Hello my sweet poet..........
We grow bananas here and they are everywhere (even in many gardens!) so yes I know and appreciate the various parts!  Have a blessed weekend Neil and thank you for the pic of the Greek letters - with love and appreciation - Maria

This is bananas! Some varieties are not represented! I know them by their patois/trini names. There is MOKO which must be fried before eaten. There is MATA BURO....purple...must be boiled or fried. There is LACATAN...resembles gros michele but not as flavorful. Chiquito....very small fruits... dozens to a bunch....very tasty when ripe.... tastier if boiled and fried with onions.  There is cooking fig....young figs used in broths and soups. Then there is sikiyea....silky sweet when ripe! There is another kind of 'fig' which grows in the the center of a whorl of cacti-type leaves....called ping-wing. Ripe it tastes great. Green it cuts your tongue with acidity! Caribbean people call bananas... figs. Enough said!
