What a blessing, golden locks!
A treasured wonder any way you see it
Hung upside down symmetrically perfect
Or viewed by those admirers a few steps behind
Mind-boggling to those unaccustomed
To think it was detested outright
By those who had not the patience
to accord loving care deserving
Yes, a passion deep down
Meticulously nurtured
A slight purring strangely felt
Every time the comb found it
unruffled to immediately
extend its attention
It was not even insured!

A great hair is a wonderful gift, how can you ever insure it?
ReplyDeleteI love these lines, Hank:

I guess such an asset can be a blessing or a curse.
ReplyDeleteWhen it you can see, may not be overly liked by many lol
ReplyDeleteGreat admiration intoned here. HAPPY SUNDAY Hank
ReplyDeleteMuch💖love
How can a well taken care hair ever be not beautiful? Your admiration seems through the words
ReplyDeleteLong hair is sexy on a woman!
ReplyDeleteBrilliant take on the prompt, Hank!❤️
ReplyDeleteI remember when I had hair down to my waist. I spent hours brushing it. I feel your admiration for the lady's well tended hair.
ReplyDeleteLong hair is lovely, but a lot of work. I like you're last line, Hank.
ReplyDelete'viewed by those admirers a few steps behind'... makes me think of all the times I have admired or marveled at long hair while walking behind. A nice homage.
ReplyDeleteExcellent write Hank. Hair is special to us all.
ReplyDeleteYvonne.
You can't get insurance for that? Bet she could :)
