Let's Wear a Hat
Hats! Hats! Hats!
I love them! don't you?
They brighten my day,
and other people's, too!
"I just love your hat!"
you'll hear them say.
And just for a while,
you've put a smile
on their day.
Sometimes, the hats I buy
need a personal touch:
A clip on flower, a pretty pin,
something outrageous,
that will bring a grin.
The hat on my head,
says "Hi," to the day,
and I can handle
whatever comes my way.
A hat lifts spirits,
on days that we're down.
But when I'm wearing my
purple, poke-a-dotted hat,
who can wear a dark day frown.
We're all in good company,
when there's a hat on our heads.
Because even newborn babies,
wear them in their beds.
But Listen, hat lover's,
when you think
you've bought them all,
wait until once again,
you're at the shopping mall!
