Tying a Scarf

I’ve never learned to tie a scarf Which makes me quite the fool ‘Cause scarves can make an outfit Look both chic and really cool. I stare at women sporting them Tied in a jaunty knot And wonder what it is they have That I just haven’t got. My mother never taught me How to carry off, with flair, A swath of silk around my neck, So suave and debonair. What isn’t in our wheelhouse, Even if it could be taught, Likely never would be something We would seek if never sought.
