"Throwing my Pitch"
I'm up at dawn and the mental gears are engaged,
the day will be long, my schedules been staged.
I've loaded my gear, trailer's ready to roll,
When sun dial hits 7:00, tis my cue to go.
Today is mowing, weed-eating, trimming and blowing
discarded leaves from trees that have been sowing.
Flower beds, homes and yards needing TLC,
assigned by their owners trustingly to me.
Like unmade beds and left over dirty dishes,
where a maid is hired to fulfill their wishes.
My services are rendered in the same intended way
to improve that which is neglected day after day.
The gift of good health to do all my work,
is a blessing from God, and not just a quirk.
To have this job at a time of economic strife,
Pleases me well, but I'd also like a wife!
I've no time to test the waters, to seek, to search
for a beautiful young gal to go with me to church.
So it's here to this site that I turn my attention
to publicly announce that I'm seeking her affection.
I'm a hard worker, fit, reliable and strong,
but to no-one that I'm in love with, do I belong.
'RICH' - I'm NOT!, (but neither am I shamefully poor),
Debt free I am, and 'DEBT' is something I want - NO MORE!
So excuse the attempt I've thrown out in poetic form,
to introduce myself as being available for your charm.
If preferences can be mentioned without insult or pain,
tis a younger, dark haired, slender beauty I hope to gain!
"OK ladies, your turn - I'm waiting!" :-)

I hope your search finds you what you are looking for.
Such a shame the description is far from me.
But I am sure a man such as you.
Will find the one shortly that should be.
it's a great poem, though...and i hope you find what you seek!
