Found more gray hair recently. Had to look closer. And then, because this an experimental platform, I had to write a brief poem about it, with a piano line that's been running through my head all day. Hoping that Bonnie Schupp will find an accompanying photo and when she does, I'll display.

lyrics

Not gray but silver hairs
I see you glinting through
I lean in closer to the mirror
Closer than I used to have to do

Yes, a bit of tinsel
Amongst the light brown strands
I watch my fingers write this down
And I see my mother’s hands

Dash and dot along the thread
On my crown this diary of the road
I’m grateful to my future self
She sent the map in code
