31 March: for Ragtag Daily Prompt

AI artwork: 1950s man wearing a trilby hat, pencil sketch

He’s Dressed

Dad always wore
a stingy brim trilby.
Just like Sinatra.

He’d pinch the crown
as he put it on, and
he was ready for it.

A gentleman, even when he’d
hit a rock with his Ferguson.

    Sometimes it’s the little things that really make a human glow.

    Morning Misk. What’s a Ferguson? The only context I heard of Ferguson was tractors. Was your da a farmer? I’m assuming he didn’t bash rocks with your TV set!

      Yes, a tractor. Red. He was a postie by occupation, but they had land and were self-sufficient in almost every way imaginable.

    Sinatra was one of a kind and imitation is the greatest form of flattery or something like that
