Work in Process : The Pomegranate Tree, April 26, 2015
I love pomegranates so much I planted five of them trees in my garden ! Not only are they delicious, Pomegranates are also is laden with mythological symbolism.
The Greek Goddess Persephone (Roman Proserpine) got in trouble because she ate some why in Hades where the evil Pluto had taken her !
