When I discovered my
first gray hair, I immediately wrote
to my parents:
"Dear Dad and Mom, You saw my first
steps. You might want to
experience this with me too." I taped the offending
hair to the paper and mailed it. My father's response, titled "Sonnet to a Hair," began:
It 's a trustworthy
observation that nothing
can compare In the process of aging with finding the first
gray hair.
He
signed off with this observation:
"That gray hair you sent us is not the
first one you gave us!"
