Vanity Undone

After Twenty years of a bare chin
I decided to give it a go
It came to fruition nicely
Though I'd not thought it to be so!

At the same time came the virus
And even though it is now spring
Needing to go out in public,
Again, I'll cover the blasted thing!

Thank you Michelle! Yes, I've been busy, busy, busy! I'm hoping to have more time since I've retired, because though I'm not really good at it, I love making the effort! Have a great day my friend!...............Patrick
