Gentleman, I Love Your French Beard

a poem by Bijay Kant Dubey

Gentleman, I love you,
Admire and appreciate your beard,
French-cut beard
Encircling the mouth,
Just a bit on the chin
And your smiles
Even in your middle age
When hair is also not too much
As has thinned it,
But even then you looking handsome and smart
With an attaché in hand going
Your way with gravity
And the fat belly
Having dyed and coloured
Your hair and beard!
