We ate pokesally for years
Til ole Doc Bekkabee told
Us bout to he toxicity of
the plant. We used the berries
to. Make poke sally pie.
Told us Pokeberries, pokesalad

needed someone who knew
what they were doing.
Grandpa would put polkberries
In the biscuit dough for breakfast
Biscuits. Man come round year
