I am very pleased to host a guest post from Kevin. He has a new book of poetry coming out, and has included one of the poems in his post.
The Last Day of August
The final day of August
Brings Autumn’s coming chill.
Perhaps this is the last
Of Summer’s new-mown grass.
The eternal breeze
Rustles the leaves
And my once brown hair.
(The above poem is taken from my forthcoming collection, Leaving and
Other Poems, which will be available from Amazon in late January/early
February 2022. My Selected Poems is available in paperback and Kindle
from Amazon and can be accessed here,

I think many of his readers will resonate with the line “once brown hair.” Thanks to Kevin for giving me a new way to describe myself!

I went from brown to grey, then to not much left but silver. It resonated with me too. 🙂
Best wishes, Pete.

Thanks, Stevie. My wife stopped dyeing her hair in 2018, and now she is completely white. Now other women ask her where she gets it done. 🙂

White hair looks lovely. Mine is gunmetal grey and not so lovely, so my hairdresser paints it every 6 weeks, lol.
