Annual Ohio PawPaw Festival

[ZinHead]

There once was a fruit called PawPaw,
whose pungent flavor wasn't BlahBlah.
Growing on tall skinny warty tan trees,
It wasn't pollinated by symbiotic bees.
Pugnant flowers sweet fecund canned,
were pollinated by blow flies of carrion.
Coated in black Phyllosticta fungal blight,
hiding sweet carmel banana mango delight.
Come one & all to the day of sweet jovial,
enjoy the fruit whose Queen of them all.
