We'Re Growing Our Hair

Hair was jet black
in November.
By December,
was fading back to brown.

Hair has caramel streaks
now in April.
You don't know,
but I bet you'd like it.
Now that the black's washed out,
the ends curl again.
Just like they did in September.

Hair was real short
in November.
Now I don't know
how long it's gotten.

In April,
hair seems longer from a distance.
I haven't been able to see up close,
but it's better than October.
I bet you know I like it.
