I thought I’d add some humour into this poem. I’ll give you two guesses which sex I’m refering too!

Oh my god!

I’ve got facial hair

Like a polar bear

Now I’m plucking forever!

Pluck1 Pluck! Pluck!

Those elongated hairs

They grow out in splashes

Here and there!

Almost as long as my eye lashes

Pluck! Pluck! Pluck!

With a poke at my grin

I can see them hiding

Underneath my double chin

Pluck! Pluck! Pluck!

Oh my god!….

Now I really need to visit

A beauty Sal…ON!

Pluck! Pluck! Pluck!

Better hurry!

I can see them

Breeding everywhere!

Pluck! Pluck! Pluck!

Ouch!…

    Isn’t getting older just wonderful? You know, Dr. Oz said you can shave those facial hairs :)

    Great being a woman with hormone disruption.
    Waxing is better than plucking, while shaving usually leads to more facial hair
    Great Poem

    Ladies, suffer with malfunctions of the body as we get older, and facial hair is just one of them. I like it.

    that was cute and witty. I have a good time reading it.

    Oh how I identify with this! I’m pretty sure shaving doesn’t lead to more hair growing – rather it makes the existing hair appear darker and coarser because a shaved hair has a blunt end rather than a gently tapering end. I’ll agree that waxing works wonderfully – if you can stand it!

    Hi Suzan
    I am so glad I can shave, being a man I can get away with stubble.
    But I have to work out or more embarrassing for me; I could end up with man boobs!

    Best wishes

    It’s great being retired, I only bother to shave once a week. I save myself about two hours a month this way. That’s a whole day per year I get for gratis, albeit with stubble!

    This is a fun piece. Though I feel ouch! My little granddaughter says och!!!! Thanks for sharing. (but she doesn’t have to pluck any hair yet! lol)

    Suzan,
    Having a beard, I guess I can really relate. Perhaps not to plucking, but shaving, trimming, etc. who needs it! My son is hunting for his first facial hair, I tell him enjoy being bare while you can! Nice piece!
