GREY HAIRS! <br />When those initial grey hairs begin to <br />sprout, <br />You are generally in a state of doubt, <br />And with forceps you try to pluck them <br />out! <br />When I had tried to pull out a few, <br />A fresh new bunch sprouted and grew! <br />And when I used colored dyes on my head, <br />Goose pimples sprouted up instead! <br />I am allergic to dyes and those artificial <br />things, <br />I wish I had known from the beginning! <br />Now going along with the flow of time, <br />I walk in step with nature and rhyme! <br />So let this richly acquired white crop grow; <br />Why make a mockery of this passing show? ! <br /> -Raj Nandy <br /> 20 May 09 <br /> New Delhi<br /><br />RAJ NANDY<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/grey-hairs-3/
