Cat Haiku

[lbaker]

A work meeting in the big room
Roll in your own chairs
Break for lunch, return
Guess whose chair is mine
The one with the cat & dog hairs
Of course

[slick]

This pillow is mine
I climb up and rest my head
On her flowing hair

------------------------------------------------

The foot of the bed
Is my little spot to sleep
And watch over her

-------------------------------------------------

With voice loud and clear
I make my point known to her
My bowl is empty

[RICHARD]

No reindeers, no snow
No freezing temperatures
This can't be Lapland!

No skis and no sleds
Only two warm thighs, a space
for a real fast nap

A place to climb on
A place to sleep the deepest,
THAT is my LAP land!!

[nibblets]

Of course I choose to
curl up on you and snuggle
just when you need to leave.

[lizzielou742]

Two nawtee kitties
I love with all of my heart
Tito and Sophie

[RICHARD]

O Feline! Crying
so early in the morning,
What can I get you???

I loved this poem! I printed out a copy for myself and gave a copy to a friend. Then, I emailed a copy to my sister, who printed it out and in turn emailed it some cat-loving friends. Thanks for sharing!

The cost of printing out this material is.....


one haiku, written by you..

[RICHARD]

CAT! Come back to bed!
The water falling outside
is called RAIN, silly!

[slick]

Max, attracted to
a shiny piece of tin foil
Like all human males.

[RICHARD]

Tin foil is shiny,
to capture a cat's fancy?
Shake a bag of treats!

----------------------------------

Warm cat, a cold night?
I sleep soundly listening
To my Edward snore.

Typical male!!!

[Barbara]

Tin foil or milk rings?
The best way to call me now
are cranberry treats

[RICHARD]

I cannot run fast
the monster is chasing me
Where can I run to?

I dream of danger
No chance! I cannot escape!
-Cat sleeps on my legs!

[RedHedd]

The food in my bowl
Is old, and more to the point
Contains no tuna.

----

So you want to play.
Will I claw at dancing string?
Your ankle's closer.

----

There's no dignity
In being sick - which is why
I don't tell you where.

----

Seeking solitude
I am locked in the closet.
For once I need you.

----

Tiny can, dumped in
Plastic bowl. Presentation,
One star; service: none.

----

Am I in your way?
You seem to have it backwards
This pillow's taken.

----

Your mouth is moving;
Up and down, emitting noise.
I've lost interest.

----

The dog wags his tail,
Seeking approval. See mine?
Different message.

----

My brain: walnut-sized.
Yours: largest among primates.
Yet, who leaves for work?

----

Most problems can be
Ignored. The more difficult
Ones can be slept through.

----

My affection is conditional.
Don't stand up,
It's your lap I love.

----

Cats can't steal the breath
Of children. But if my tail's
Pulled again, I'll learn.

----

I don't mind being
Teased, any more than you mind
A skin graft or two.

----

So you call this thing
Your "cat carrier." I call
These my "blades of death."

----

Toy mice, dancing yarn
Meowing sounds. I'm convinced
You're an idiot.
