Ilene Bauer Poet Rhyme

Headgear

Ear muffs perch on little heads
In poof or sparkly style,
While furry pom poms bounce on hats
Engendering a smile.

Hoods with fuzzy fake-fur trim
Are pulled ‘round reddened faces
As well as ski or baseball caps,
Which stay in men’s good graces.

Winter headgear keeps us warm
But fashion counts, as well,
Until we step inside to find
Our hairstyles look like hell!

Robert Johnson February 16, 2017 at 8:20 PM Bed head, hat head and the like's. Don't look yourself straight in the mirror for surely God know's YIKES! :) We used to have king of the hill games where we would snap our long cone shaped hats with tassels at each other. Sixth grade. :) Oh to be a child again.
