My First Gray Hair

Amfunny
Today I faced what most I feared;
my very first gray hair appeared.

It stood out boldly in my hair;
I couldn't believe that it was there.

I hated it, if truth be told;
it shouted to me, "Girl, you're old."

I was not about to scream and shout;
instead I pulled that sucker out.

    An honor I allow my daughter to do repeatedly. Do not be scared it doesn't come back multiplied as the old wives tale spouts. Nor am I bald. Good poem. Thanks for sharing.
