Ode to DayO

When once a girl to change her hair
Finds out that life isn't always fair
Orange is the color that it Had just been
When she decided she wanted to set a new trend
She worked so hard to make it right
Only to see it looking white
Remembering the words of her dear friend
When in other times embarrassament had been
To raise high her head and strut her stuff
With much confidence the shame to snuff
Here she is now remembering to stand
Marilyn Monroe hair is in her hands.
When she is fixing it she noticed a blur
Her right eye must have been irritated by all of the fur
However, it seems the blur doesn't end
It must mean good eyesight is no longer for lend
Can it be now after all of these years
That glasses will come oh here come the tears
Her beloved husband she calls in despair
Only to hear "Honey, your old, life's not fair"
He continues to tease then gets off the phone
She calls others to encourage and not leave her alone
Oh what a day this one has been
With a wink and a giggle this is the end

Too cute! I had to laugh about the white hair and the blurry eye. Talk about unfairness. Why is it one twin has blurry eyes from fourth grade up and the other one doesn't get it until middle age? Hmmmm, not feeling the sympathy here. L
