This is a cute well-rhymed poem with its aabb rhyme scheme. We are all mammals and hair is part of the species description. Pain is part of being female.

Hah, well, she (Dave) could always join the circus, too. There's a lot to be said for circus and/or carny work. You get to travel extensively, see many parts of the country, meet new, interesting and exciting people, and the pay ain't half bad, either.

Or, she could do just like you said and quit shaving, then change her name to Dave.

Funny stuff, and I loved the old, vintage look this had.

Well done!

This poem has a good rhyme and rhythm. It's premise is amusing and you deliver all of the gags with good timing and a sense of fun. It grows well with the theme and should amuse a lot of voters. I wish you well in teh contest.

Seems waxing's not much better than a shave;
it hurts like hell and I'm not all that brave.
The stubble's peeping through already too...
I'll change my name to Dave, that's what I'll do!

this is a very well written poem and a great entry into the growth contest. It rhymes well in aabb style, and it has great humor to it.
good luck in the contest. Mary

Ha, ha, love the solution of changing your name, that sure seems like the easiest solution. Well written, flows well, and left me chuckling. Good luck in the contest!

This is a very humorous write. Yet very true with some women. Waxing and shaving can be a hassel. Then I ask God why he put that feature in some women and he won't answer. Maybe His answer is Change your nam to Dave. LOL We'll never know. Thanks for sharing this humor with us.

    Thank you angel Debbie for your lovely feedback. My way of dealing with the excess testosterone is to joke about it, laugh or cry right?! I choose to smile even though I get self conscious about the stubble :) kindest regards...

I'm sure this isn't really true, 'D' (not 'Dave' LOL).

Hey, I'm jealous, as I wish I could grow a beard like her in the picture.

Very funny read about this poor hairy lady who seems to have found a solution. Maybe she could audition for a werewolf movie.

Good luck and best wishes, Ted
