Many hats..

Do you seek to define me?

Well, let me help

This hat is the one I wear

when I am feeling sexy

note the sequins

and the jaunty lace.

This one is my mom hat

extra band-aids and sewing needles

hidden in the brim.

This is my thinking cap

that I stain with ink and paint

creative endeavors

are often the result

of putting it on..thusly

This cap over here

is my night cap

I use it when I need peace

and a bit of fantasy

to help my heart

and soothe my soul

This hat

with the wild patterns

is my sassy side

she dreams of pinching men’s bottoms

and doing things others would consider

a tad risky

cheekiness personified

This is my sister hat

true blue

of course

and this hat

this one over here

with it’s floppy brim

that covers my face

that’s the one I wear

when I am blue

and need to be alone

for a time..to hide my face.

I wear many hats

I am many parts

that make a whole

I am a collection

overflowing the cupboards

and peeping from closets

if you sit here awhile

I am certain

you will find a few

you might enjoy
