My History with Shaving

[BobGrantKC]

Welcome to the Forum. Yes - that has certainly been my experience.

Funny one, I shaved everyday so my locks would look like davey jones beard, but now its tedium. Everyone who says they wish they could grow never have, and those who have rather not...

I remember in My Youth - Looked Into the Mirror.
Hoping that a Manly Man would Be coming Nearer.
Lathered up my Younger Face - for One Tiny Hair.
Razor with no Blade in It - didn't Really Care.

Then in Time it Came to Pass - have to Shave for Real.
Cuts and Toilet Paper - seemed to Seal the Deal.
Started taking Gentle Swipes with some Practiced Care,
Getting Ready for each Day in my Underwear.

Tried to Grow some Facial Hair - didn't Work for Me,
When it Showed up on My Face - looked Quite “Ghas-til-ly.”
Late in Life and now I Say - in a Seasoned Tone.
Wish my “Aging Facial Hairs” - Fell off On their Own!
