Caps for Sale
Caps for Sale
I was in a restaurant eating dinner one day and noticed a large group of twenty-somethings seated at a party table. Most of them were wearing caps, and I got to thinking about wearing caps indoors. And then I thought about a favorite book from my childhood called "Caps for Sale". Thus, I mused about tropical monkeys descending on an open-air restaurant and wreaking havoc with caps on folk's heads.
So, here are an assortment of fun caps that I've found and also the book that partly inspired me to develop this lens. Feel free to browse. I expect to add more styles over time.
I've also included a new original poem entitled "Wish I Had a Cap". Poetry copyright MyFairLadyah - Reprint only with permission

Wish I Had a Cap
An Original Poem about Caps
Wish I had a cap upon my head
To shield my naked balding pate
I'd hang it at the post upon my bed
When I got home exhausted late
What color would it be, you ask
There's many a hue from which to choose
I don't know to which I'd give the task
From greens and tans, yellows and blues
Perhaps a dozen caps I'd have
To fit my mood on a given day
And I wouldn't need my feelings salved
Should the wind blow one away
Protective like the habit of a nun
Yet much lighter in its stead
I'd feel not much the blazing sun
Had I a cap upon my head
