A Grey Hair

A poem

By A Human ExperiencePublished 4 years ago 1 min read

What you see, What you feel

Stop thinking that life isn’t fair

I know it isn’t.

Stop wondering what other’s see.

It’s not a matter.

See that grey hair and think life isn’t fair?

You see grey hair. They see grey hair.

It’s only a matter of how you judge it.

Judge that life isn’t fair, and your focus will be on the dullness of grey hair.

When grey is one of many, one of a million shades of potential beauty . . .

then life becomes divine.

Diversity is equity.

Fair is everybody gets the same thing.

If life was fair, it would be dull, not shiny

Like grey hair.

About the Creator

A Human Experience

To filter some of the gruff that comes with being human, I write. To express emotion in tongues that riddles inequitable distribution and forgets the power of love and community, I write with hopes that others might feel connected.
