Wish I could type my response without getting banned.

Oh!

I am a fig plucker,

I pluck figs,

I am the best fig plucker,

That ever plucked figs.

I planted 4 Texas Everbearing figs this year. In the middle of the horrible drought.

All 4 survived and it looked like I would actually make some figs the first year. Frost came too soon.

But next year I look forward to a crop. Along with a lot of strawberries and blackberries.

My blueberries did not do so well 1 of 4 survived. Our soil is mildly alkali, suspect I did not put enough peat moss on the soil.

Thanks for having a sense of humor! It's rare yet refreshing!

Here’s how I heard it in the 1960’s.

I’m not a fig plucker nor a fig plucker’s son
but I’ll keep plucking figs ‘till the fig plucker comes.
