Great Haiku, Milton, and they're indeed a nuisance to clean, which is why I wash them every day and don't let them pile up.

Good luck with that, Lasaad. I don't have time for that every day. My sycamore is absolutey huge...the largest one in the neighborhood.

As you said to Caren, they are a pain in the rear to get up when they get wet. Tom

So, true. I love them, though. My sycamore is probably 100 years old or older. It's a beautiful tree, but a headache this time of the year.

"big bold leaves" - I like this imagery.

They are a "big bold" headache because they are so large and heavy, especially when damp, that they are hard to get up.
