I Love the way I wear this hat!



I Love the way I wear this hat!
What others think I have no care;
They call me vain! How do they dare?
My love for life they do not share;
Will gossip change their heart of that?
They call me vain! How do they dare?
I Love the way I wear this hat!
What others think I have no care!

  10. And I love the way you use your words. This was very much fun to read, and it's very bold! Both the pictures and the words talk about women who are daring!

    Kiss you girl!

  11. I love the way you wear it, too. Nice little triolet, and just the right subject for one, something that calls out for a simple but entertaining/meaningful statement..and I'm certain that's exactly what the lady was thinking.

  12. fantabulous!! Have you ever seen the play "Sunday in the Park with George"? Now I am humming the memorable, "Finishing the hat" song. I love IT, too! And you reminded me of Magpie.. so many thanks to you I am feeling redundant but then again, is gratitude ever redundant, really?
