The Wombat

 Image result for wombats


Down under is where you’ll find
the wombat and his hairy kind.

Of all the beasts who walk and run
he could be called the strangest one.

Like a bear he’s often grumpy,
and has a tail that’s short and stumpy.

Those glowing eyes and teeth that pierce,
will tell us he can be quite fierce;

and with his friends he does not tarry--
it seems he’s mostly solitary,

As for your invite to a lunch
he’d have no use-- would be my hunch;

and since your clocks are in reverse
there’s little chance you will converse--  

for night is when this guy goes out
to find his food and get about--

so when you are in bed asleep
is when he wonders what to eat!
