The Rumbutan Tree

Posted on May 21, 2012 by Rex Tyler

The Rumbutan Tree
got its name from malay
It seems it means hairy
the fruit one can say
is hairy, and so its
a quite fitting name
a bit like a Lychee or Longgan
some claim
Wild Rambutans are yellow
I hear
Some grow in Melaka
but the red one’s appear
in the markets
In Chinese pinyin
Hong Mao Dun
clearly their sweetness
derived from hot sun
