I love this poem, it has a great sense of humor.
I personally don't like hats... I'm a little lady and feel like a walking hat if I would wear one. LOL. Great entry for the contest and I wish you luck. Fia

I enjoyed reading this. Thought it was well thought out, flowed well and followed the writing prompt. Easy to read. Absolutely adored the pictures as well.

Comment from Brett Matthew West
Some times putting on false pretenses will come back to haunt the person as this poem depicts.
Theme seems to be it is more important to be yourself than try to be somebody, or something, you are not.
Should be a good contest entry.

Not having ever been much of one to wear hats I would not know how difficult it is to chose the correct one. You do make it sound as if it could be fun.

Comment from Barb Hensongispsaca
I had to laugh at your descriptions of the shapes and the styles.
This brought back a lot of memories of how hats made the person and you had one for every occasion...now it is ball caps and straw hats.
Nice rhyme and flow

Thank you, Barb. Yes, I am afraid ball caps are the rage these days!

Comment from LIJ Red
I drive to town and hit the diner every day. Most days I see a few ball caps, one out of every half-dozen on a female. The hat is dead. RIP.
The meter's casual here, but the rhymes are fine.

Comment from Pam (respa)
-I absolutely love the artwork; it is so glamorous.
-Well written poem, too.
-I especially like all the different types of hats you chose.
-A very different subject that you make interesting.
-Each type of hat has such good description and reaction.
-The baseball cap is probably the best because we know that it just isn't her style!
-You conclude it all very well.
-Personally, I choose the one in the pictureğ???

I remember growing up in day when my mother wouldn't consider leaving the house without a hat. Now, I wouldn't consider leaving the house wearing a hat. Your poem flowed smoothly and was fun to read.
