Hahaqhaha, No that is so true. Life is certainly not black or white. Nothing is really. I liked it and I loved the picture to go with it. Good luck in the contest. Ulla:)))

This senryu, On a Tonal Scale, presented as a 5-7-5, takes a funny turn with the gray hair reference. Those gray areas either be coaxed back to black or allowed to race to that white shade.

I don't cover my gray hairs, but I have friends who are starting to look like your picture; a mess because their gray hair is showing.
change "grey" to "gray"
Excellent entry for the senryu contest.

LOL! :) ;) Love this offering for the senryu contest -- so very full of truth yet presented with humor to 'help the medicine go down'! ;) :) Best of luck at the polls! ;)

Good 5-7-5 syllable counts. Written in present tense. Expresses human emotion. I can identify with the grey hair. Good luck in the contest.

Isn't it the truth. Between the black and the white of the polarization, is that grey area you speak of in your poem, the grey area most of us are in. estory

I like the short poem about a tonal scale in life. Interesting that that term can apply to music or colors. You have expressed an interesting theme in this writing.

Looks like format is correct. Also overcomes one of my pet peeves. Really cute artwork, but your post makes sense without it. So often, the picture is necessary to tell the story. Not so with yours. Bill

Oh this is great. I feel like you definitely have a chance at sweeping the contest. So creative with the use of the cliche against your grey haired guy. Great job!
