The Day I Lost My Favorite Hat

 

I chased the wind, it danced away,  

my hat was swift, it could not stay.  

It tumbled fast, it leapt so high,  

a soaring speck against the sky.  

 

I ran and stumbled, tripped and fell,  

that silly hat I loved so well.  

It disappeared beyond my reach,  

a puff of clouds, a sandy beach.  

 

I sat and sighed, the chase was done,  

my hat was caught, and I had none.  

But as I sat, the lesson clear,  

things come and go, and disappear.  

 

I learned that day to let things be,  

and find the joy that’s still with me.  

The wind can\'t steal what’s in your heart,  

new hats will come, a brand new start.
