On the first day of Christmas, I'm pretty sure the pear tree in which the partridge perched wasn't a Callery Pear Tree. Sure, Callery Pears are pretty. But if the pear tree that that present presenting personage was a Callery, said dude better've gotten his lady a decent yard-guy to go with it, because those trees are messy. Big time.
I think I moved ten or twelve wagon loads of those stupid leaves. Times like these, I remember the words of an interesting old bloke who owns a jewelry store downtown: "I got no use for anything deciduous". Amen, brother. Amen.

...but it sure is pretty!
On the other hand, semi-deciduous oak trees aren't much fun, so I understand your leaf beef.
Leaf beef! Har!
Better than water oaks that dribble leaves all winter.
Yeah, John, but I can ignore little oak leaves with impunity.
