The wombat in the hat likes sleeping like that
She finds any old cap is just fine for a nap
When she sees a bonnet she’ll nap right upon it
She can sleep in a toque and not rise ’til awoke
Some rest in a boater will recharge her motor
Give her a chapeau and to Dreamland she’ll go
Put her in a trilby and sleeping she will be
She’s asleep in a Stetson the moment she gets in
Show her a fedora, she’ll climb in and snore-a
Sleep in a sombrero? If it’s not too narrow
A snooze in a helmet? That challenge is well met
A hat for a cowboy? It’s her cradle now, boy
Yes, any old top is a fine place to plop
If it sits on a head, then it’s this wombat’s bed

oh my gosh. Clunk – dead from the cute. oh boy. Not sure I’ll be able to recover today…
Fantastic! (I must disagree with the “bad poetry” tag.)
It even matches her fur!
Lila is a real beauty and the poetry is great, Mike!
Yes isn’t he the poet?? 🤣 …climb in and snore-a 🤣
👏🏼👏🏼 Another well done post by none other than NTMTOM. If a hat is what attracts a wombat, I’ll need to find some and leave them out. I’m still waiting…..
Would that be NOTNTMTOM? 😁
Terrific rhyming! But here’s a new challenge- Aussies wear hats called Akubras. Good luck!
I love the way you push that envelope! NOMTOM is up to the challenge, I’m sure. He rivals Dr. Seuss.
NTMTOM, the next Shel Silverstein!
EXCELLENT poetry! Leetle wombatlet is a much needed blessing in a sorry world.
Love everything about the post. Mike is the new Suess!
Well done, NOMTOM! You’ve already been compared to Seuss and Silverstein–I’ll up the ante with Cole Porter.
Fantastic!👏🏼🤩
NTMTOM, you need to compile a book of your poems and pictures. I know it would be a lot of work, but people WOULD buy it! Maybe you know someone who could do it with/for you? You could even combine it with the book everyone wants that has all your best posts in it!
I can dream, right?😜
