Facial hair on women
Is a thing that most dread
They wouldn't think of shaving
But cover it with make up instead
My Grandmother had two hairs
That stuck out on her chin
She used to use the tweezers
Before her day would begin
Then she used her make up
To cover that area well
That way no one would ever
Know about the hair and tell
My Grandmother was very proud
She walked with her head up high
But when you spoke to her
She would look you in the eye

What a topsy turvey species we are. The men seek to regain their lost hair, and the women seek to remove the unwanted! Good take here.

Don't all grandmothers have whiskers on their chins? As a child i recall mine did, Does anyone but the owners of them notice or even care? a wonderful little piece of observation Well done Good luck in the contest
