1938 BONNETS, by                    
First Line: I tried on a new bonnet / it really was
Last Line: My new easter hat.
Subject(s): Easter; Holidays; The Resurrection


I tried on a new bonnet,
It really was quite funny;
Had ears that stuck straight up
Just like an Easter bunny.

So I tried another,
In my side I got a stitch,
Then I laughed aloud
For I looked like a witch.

Time went on and on
Hats passed in review,
With my sense of humor,
I knew not what to do.

Then I shut my eyes,
Grabbed one -- big and flat.
Now all my friends admire
My new Easter hat.
