Face Time

Faces are interesting accessories to our bodies. They render us quite unique. Growing up my freckles always drove me crazy. I'd look in the mirror and contemplate ways that I might rid them. These days they seem to have faded away a bit, and I've gotten use to the those little fellers sprinkled around my body. Now, in 1974 I added a mustache to my look, and I've carried it ever since. It had been presented in many different variations. Small, long and droopy, fu manchu-ish. I've worn them all. These mornings it's quite long and bushy. I've even taken to adding a little wax to the look. I hear the National Hockey League has designated the month of November as 'Movember' this year to raise money and awareness for men's cancer. Here at work, I hear the guys are going to be growing mustaches for this good cause, but what do I do?
I've got it!
I'll grow a soul patch!
Now, that's some face time that I've never worn.
Some will roll their eyes, but hey, I just say: FACE it!

    Please be sure to get a picture of that soul patch before the end of November. I wish we could see it.
    Such pretty faces you've posted here.

    Love the mosaic! And like the others, I'd like to know what a soul patch is too.

    After you grow your soul patch, are you going to continue to wear your paper bag? Inquiring minds want to know!

    I'm one of the few members of the community who has met you. My advice is to leave well enough alone.

    I find that a face is a handy thing to have. At least the top half is . . .
