In this enchanted mansion, there’s a rule that must be followed:
Refrain from being knotty or by woodwork you’ll be swallowed.
Remember that bad dog who sent the master’s china sailing?
He turned into a dogwood log, now he’s part of the railing.
And then that cat, who outside sat a-wailing far past nine?
From that point hence she joined the fence; for her we do not pine.
So linden ear; don’t moan and birch; tread lightly through these halls.
Please take heed or yew’ll be cedar paneling for the walls.
I’d make like a tree and leaf, woodn’t you, Megan W.?
Whahaha! Reminds me of the magic coffee can and the cat. Good times.
NOMTOM, you never fail to amaze and delight. Love the look on pupper’s face.
Oh my goodness! That’s amazing. And NOMTOM, excellent verse!
Very disturbing picture. But absolutely hysterical.
THIS POST WINS 2016. You might as well shut down the site, NTMTOM, for the balance of the year because this is untoppable. Seriously one of your GREATEST HITS.
I second this.
I third it!! WAY TO GO!!
Very “Poe”etic. Love that you heard that poem when you saw the pup seeing his possible fate.
Quick … What covers a tree ?
BARK !

Geeeeeeniussss!
Now this post makes me miss 260Oakley from the old ranch!
*golf clap* I see what you did there.
Fitting name aside, I bet she’d have some good ones for this post.
I think this poem goes to te roots of NTMTOM sense of humour, he must have a lot of funny ancestors in his family tree. ?
Is that tree a “Knutty” Pine ? I can see that

Ooooh, I “twigged” that, Doug!
NTMTOM, bravo. Take a bow (bough?) and we’ll toss bouquets at your feet.
Mic drop! Good night 2016!
