Cat Haiku

[Barbara]

Left ear on south west
neighbor's silly dogs' barking
I sigh and sleep on.

Right ear on south east
stuff out of the dishwasher
mind my own business

all ears in front now
my brother gets temptations
all systems alert!!!

[RICHARD]

Paws and Claws

My pink little toes
'Frito feet' to some of you
Five little piggies.

I can use my feet
like a pro soccer player
I dribble with ease

A goalie's worst fear
Foil balls shot at the goal net
or under the stove

----
My razor claws can
defend me or open your skin
when you play too rough

Small retractable
switch blades, under my control
Or out of control

I can climb up trees
or the screen door of your house
See those white curtains???

And most of the time
My claws and paws take me to
where I find trouble!

[RICHARD]

Sum of all parts-III

Spine and tail

My flexible spine
Let's me contort into shapes
that would hurt humans.


--------
My tail is my flag
I will wave it in your face
While you try to read

[Barbara]

I am not a dog
My tail is a semaphore
not a moody flag

[RICHARD]

not a moody flag,
just a sign to let you know
I need some loving!

[lbaker]

don't we all Sorry, I guess that isn't Haiku, just an emotion)

[catmandu]

Now that is poetry , that the Found Cats and Feeder can realte to. Very Funny , and a lot of time , true!

[RICHARD]

How can I complete
My tax forms, with a fifteen
Pound cat on the desk??

Hmm, shouldn't that be

... Pound cat on the form?

or, if your home's like mine
... Pound cat eating pen?

[Barbara]

Tax forms with thirteen
pounds of cat eating the form
isn't any easier

British Pounds, Deutschmarks,
Euros, Kroners, pesetas,
Lira or dollars.

The weight of a cat
cannot be deducted from
your yearly earnings!

Amber,

That's what I meant....forms.....

thanks!

[RICHARD]

Catnip addiction-
My 'nipping worries my dad.
It's under control!

[Barbara]

Catnip addiction?
We Europeans prefer
Valeriane stuff

[Twink]

Or, to paraphrase:

"Rehab!," Dad threatens.
But I, who need no such thing,
Can quit any time.

Have I mentioned that I love this thread?

[Barbara]

Twink in your haiku
new hope manifests itself
for this boring thread.
