Cat Haiku

[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.

BEAUTIFUL!!! I want to embroider this and hang it over my fireplace mantle............

[RICHARD]

Turkey, cranberries
All of this delicious food...
Let me sniff your plate???

[lbaker]

Sniff your plate
Sniff your feet

Give me something good to eat

Turkey, stuffing, gravy too
You love me and I love you

ahhhhh

[Barbara]

Turkey, cranberries?
What party are they having
there in the US?

Waiting for these treats
Filou's tail wags violently
while he says MEEEOOW!

[RICHARD]

'Recycled' cat food
Oozing up between my toes-
Not a good feeling!
