A Red Hat Invitation

 

This is a heartfelt invitation

Made especially to you

The Red Hat Society wants you

To become a member too.

 

We want you in this chapter

Because you’re a woman of the world.

You now can do and think things

You couldn’t as a girl.

 

As a group we all love our

“Dis-organization”

To think of  “us” and just have fun

Is a completely new sensation!

 

The only rule is that there are no rules

To qualify your fun

Come on in and join us now

The fun has just begun.

 

Always wear your purple ensemble

And an outrageous red hat too

We make a statement in our full regalia

That some other clubs don’t do

 

Like come on in and find friendship

On almost every face.

Our group is based on sisterhood

Not fame or wealth or race.

 

And when you are a red hat 

You’ll never be lonely again

Cause no matter where you go

You can find a red hat friend.

An Invitation to My Friend


For your fiftieth birthday
I just wanted to say
Put on this new Red Hat
And let’s go out and play!
 

All those years you were
The model wife and mother.
So at least one day a month
Put yourself before another.
 
On this Red letter day
You must not wear black.
Put on your purple and red
And never look back.
 
Celebrate now because you’re in
A new circle of friends.
And hold on tight
Fifty is when the party begins.
 
They always said at fifty
We were over the hill
And time to think of serious things
Like doing up a will.
 
But we say Bah, Humbug
It’s time to have fun     
Watch out world
Here the Red Hats come!
