I'Ve Earned The Grey Poem by Juan Olivarez

I'Ve Earned The Grey

Rating: 4.5


I've earned the grey, upon my head,
Through many, many years.
And never once do I regret,
The sorrow and the tears.

I've earned the grey, upon my face,
My badge of honor if you will.
It brings to mind much better days,
That live within me still.
