GREY HAIRS!
When those initial grey hairs begin to
sprout,
You are generally in a state of doubt,
And with forceps you try to pluck them
out!
When I had tried to pull out a few,
A fresh new bunch sprouted and grew!
And when I used colored dyes on my head,
Goose pimples sprouted up instead!
I am allergic to dyes and those artificial
things,
I wish I had known from the beginning!
Now going along with the flow of time,
I walk in step with nature and rhyme!
So let this richly acquired white crop grow;
Why make a mockery of this passing show? !
