The date palms are tall trees, similar to coconut trees. They don't provide shade like peepul, banyan or neem trees - but the date fruits are tasty, healthy and full of nutrients. The leaves are long and sharp. The poet says the leaves are sharp as a blade, meaning that it can even cut through other objects. But it is used for poetical imagination and rhyme only.
