Written for: dVerse Poets Pub - Poetics: Leave Your Hat One (posted by Mish) "Pay homage to the hat in a poem." Men have stopped wearing hats for business or pleasure, except of course, for the Mad Hatter. Don't you adore those sophisticated hats worn by women in 1940's films? Only certain women can carry a cloche, balance a beret, or fill a full-furred Russian hat. Dad loved fedoras for dress, and a variety of caps for less formal occasions. He persuaded me to wear them, starting with a child's straw Easter bonnet. Bring back the hat! https://dversepoets.com/2022/03/15/poetics-leave-your-hat-on/
