Not Easy

Yup, its not easy being a female gardener fun glorious fun passionate joy in sun - BUT -- just now for instance deconstructing a tree snap -- thwack --- stings like a bee as green branch flicks a boob YOOWSER!!! Loppers and boobs its a horror show No holding up close for leverage strong or squeezes, bruises sing a black/blue song hold far away from chest use more muscles is best. No getting the hose out for a convenient piddle Too obvious when female needs to widdle. Of course I'm smarter So that's a useful starter For massive shrub removal got a good technique but best done when no one around to peek As when final root comes loose I go head over bum, like a boomerang goose! And YEAH, When I get home really do need a comforting beer! Written 6th July 2018 for Nick Trim's contest. Amuse me with your rhyme.

So creative, Virginia!! As a member of the male species (or whatever we are), I never would have imagined any of this!! So real ... at the same time it's utterly hilarious! Clever romp! ~ Gershon
