He also sung of the May Queen and it is one of my theme songs. As Abba said "Rock Stars sang about you".
Black pepper (Piper nigrum) is a flowering VINE that is cultivated for its fruit, dried, spice and seasoning. The fruit contains a single seed. Native from India, although Vietnam is the world's largest producer and exporter of pepper, producing 34% of the world''s crop as of 2008. In ancient times pepper was also used as a medicine in the same way that other spices were. Healers utilized spices in the same way that aromatherapy utilizes oils. Via smell and the senses.
Know this you have the sense of smell for healing purposes and to know when food is fresh. I like black pepper on food and usually ground peppercorns. Did you know that pepper also appears in a Buddhist text and is one of the few medicines allowed to be carried by a monk? By the end of the dark ages the spice trade was under Islamic control, and in those days could only be purchased by the rich and wealthy. Does it remind you of how the corporations are doing their utmost to patent every thing that is natural and pure? Was it due to the Islamic elite that the USA went into Vietnam?
You might like to do some research on the medicinal properties of pepper and the growing of it.
