Poetry

Description

“Laughter is timeless, Imagination has no age, Dreams are forever…”

This quote from Walt Disney inspired me to create this hat.

In this quote timeless appears three times.

Once “timeless” as a word, but also “no age” and “forever” describe timeless.

I have chosen the roses because roses are flowers that are always up to date and suitable for all occasions.

The pen is symbolizing the written word.

I have specially chosen a timeless form and color for the hat.
