My Favorite Hat

My favorite hat is a wide brimmed straw hat
This hat has a bright orange ribbon hat band
The orange shorts matched and that is where it is at!
Little cabanna girl I got titled; Isn't life grand
It is perfect for the windy, sunny beach and sand

Until the day the pelican flew it away
So long cabanna girl
Now I am topless, my shorts did stay
I searched for my pearl
with no success, now I wear a curl!

LOL That's so cute, Doris. I'm sure Carol will love it. Best wishes in the contest. If you get a chance, would you send me an email and let me know how your mom is doing after her surgery? I'd really appreciate it. She's a sweetheart. Love, Carolyn
