Haiku Friday: Cats

 


October is a month when our thoughts turn to cats. Halloween is focused on spooky things, and let's face it-- cats are kind of spooky. They see in the dark, they have mysterious unknown agendas, they are up all night. So let's haiku about them this week. Here, I will go first:

Our cat had some plans
Chuck would head out in morning
Come back with some wounds.

Now it is your turn! Just use the 5/7/5 syllable pattern, and have some fun!

    Our family cat
    Loved to unspool bath tissue
    All over the house

    Her eyes in the dark—
    Greenglow moons staring into
    Mine, I jump thin air.
