Leaf Blower
A middle-aged man nearby
Is clearing up some leaves.
He swings the blower round;
Enjoys its phallic whirl.
It reminds him of the time
When he could get the girl.

And thanks to Julie and Pete.
Yes, alternative titles are available, John. And the alternative product is a rake, which is not a great way to end up and which makes slow progress. I suppose there is a theme of disappearing youth in this somewhat trivial verse.
Telboy - I feel you pain. It happened to us once.
Thanks to MC, Jordyn, Stephen A, Aisha and Holden for the likes.
It's a most unselfish act, to share your leaves with your neighbours.
Leave it out, Stephen! It’s the only blow-job I can get these days!

This is beautiful Stephen. It's such an art to be able to write a short poem that brings out so many emotions. I love this poem because it is playful and sweet and provides some genuine romanticism to what otherwise might be seen as 'ordinary day to day tasks'.
