Hair Apparent

Hair Apparent

I'm glad that I still have my hair,
I think that if it was not there
I'd be self conscious as could be,
And wonder what folks think of me.

I know I should not be upset,
The way we look is what we get.
Inside is what should matter most,
So no one has a right to boast.

I'd rather have my bad hair days
Than go around reflecting rays,
But there are men who look real good
With heads resembling polished wood.

So if I keep my hair or not
I'll just give thanks for what I've got.
And if you are of hair bereft
Be thankful for whatever's left.


John H. Bidwell

Hey John I got to read this yesterday. I told my husband about the part "with heads resembling polished wood." I'd say his resembles birch. His birth name was "Burch." Great poem. It's nice to have hair, if I say so myself.

Yes what is inside that matters not the VENEER! If you don't mind I am saving this in my library..

The Wholly Book of Genesis by Jay Dubya

The Wholly Book of Genesis is a humorous satire on the first book of the Old Testament where the Story of Creation, the building of Noah's Ark, Sodom and Gomorrah and the families of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob are thoroughly spoofed and broadsided.
