I'm just a little hanky
As square as square can be,
But with a stitch or two
Lynn made a bonnet out of me.
I'll be worn from the hospital or on christening day
Then I'll be carefully pressed
And neatly packed away.
For her wedding day,
So we've been told,
Every well dressed bride must have
That something old.
So what could be more fitting than to find little me,
A few stitches snipped
And a wedding hanky I'll be.
And if perchance, it is a boy
Some day he'll surely wed,
So to the bride he can present
The hanky once worn upon his head.
