Corduroy Day
It’s Corduroy Awareness Day,
So let us be aware.
If you’ve no pants of corduroy,
Well – get yourself a pair!
This date was chosen just because
It looks like corduroy.
I’m sure that cynics might suspect
That reason is a ploy.
Perhaps it is, but that’s no cause
For wearers to curtail
The donning of some corduroy
With thin or thicker wale.
Eleven tripled comes but once
While we are still alive,
So on this date it would be great
If everyone would strive
To sport a bit of corduroy –
A jacket, shirt or pants
To celebrate this special time –
Today’s your one-time chance!
