Her Hats



Hats like music hiding her face.
Melodies race
past my logic.
Ribboned magic.

Gauzy glances vibrant flowers
exert powers
meant to deceive
what I perceive.

Lurking under ribbons with plume
eyes speaking doom.
Her hat obscures
dark smile demure.

  1. I enjoyed this, Jo. Perhaps more in the past than today, but doesn't a hat make or break an outfit??

    It's simply amazing what a lady can keep under her hat isn't it? Dan...I think it's the shoes!

    My great aunt always wore this little navy blue pill-box hat with a small face-veil... What is it about hats anyway? I look soooo stupid in any hat, but some people wear them with such panache!!
