My Cactus Hat (A Poem)

On my head,
I have a cactus hat.
It's very prickly and green,
What do you think of that?
I wear it all day long.
It gets a lot of stares.
No one dares to touch it.
You must handle it with care.
My cactus hat needs watering
Once a week if you please.
It drives away flying pests,
Including gnats, mosquitoes, and fleas.
Do you own a cactus hat?
It stands out in a crowd.
But if you place your hand on it,
You're bound to scream real loud.

I must say, your poems are really entertaining, like this one.
I hope you bring more poems in the next days. I would be glad to read them.

I, too, watered my cactus today. And once again, I skipped the hug.
