I grew a beard
When the stubble appeared
I looked like a zero
More hobo than hero
I grew a beard
A path I almost veered
When people started asking
How long this fluff was lasting
I grew a beard
I thought you'd sneered
At my lovely bristles
A face full of thistles
I grew a beard
But it's not what I feared
I thought it would itch
Until full-bodied and rich
I grew a beard
I thought it looked weird
But it looks quite good
Much better than it should
I grew a beard
I didn't get jeered
Just got asked a question
About my hairy direction
I grew a beard
Glad I persevered
It doesn't look too bad
My view's now ironclad
I grew a beard
Now it's quite revered
It's talk of the town
A metaphorical crown
I grew a beard
And now I'm cheered
A sophisticated man
Part of an elegant clan
I grew a beard
It's got dog-eared
I don't have a trimmer
How can I get it thinner?
I grew a beard
With food it's smeared
Why won't it behave?
I think I'll just need to shave
