pitter patter paws

a cozy warm place to sleep

purring up a storm

stroking black velvet

until her tiny rumble . . .

becomes a huge purr

for Robert James Liguori's Black Cat Haiku Poetry Contest

cheese lies on the floor
mouse makes his way to the cheese
cat runs for the mouse

Dizzy cat
Staggers and spins out of reach...
Birdie laughs mocking

Cat door swings open
 
Field mouse scampers in --
 
     Tiny feet warmed

tabby cat slinking
around the house, looking stealth
pouncing and prancing

lover, neat and sweet
purring for a stroke around
his silky neck

Cat howling, after
Midnight, before dawn, is darker than sound,
Made when no ones ‘round.

my wife howls bad news
                                         the sauce curdles in the pan
                                               a cat has nine lives

stray cat under moonlight
                        looks up  pauses and moves on
                        no regrets

sun bleached porch swing creaks
             a crow scolds a calico

            bird seed turns to dust

Cats on moonlit roofs,
Stilled, watching the city sleep,
Fireflies in their eyes.

jungle green wild eyes

smoky shadow softly leaps...

cooling river swim

softer then cotton
warm as a hot cup of tea
cat purrs beside me

****

                                 You are my sweet pet.
                            Rose, the fish cake of my eye,
                                Come with me to Rome.

a gift to the host

neighbour’s cat walks through the door

smelling of wild mint

creeped out by the cat
such an unexpected touch
stealthy and sneaky

like twins they indeed do become

warm, sleepy, peaceful bodkins

in God's universe, love and the sun

Winter Storm


            the storm approaches,
            ominous, black clouds dust the sky,
            cries of a lost cat.

lolling on a hill
in glossy days of summer
cherishing blue skies

fat bumblebees hum
tunes of sweetness and sunlight
purple rose delight

gurgling brook's laughing
then the fall, and mum's the word
chrysanthemum craze

calico cat frisks
in the mystery of hours
colored by beauty

Showery leaping
                 Hungry calico cat
                 Feeds under flowers

the cat sits
angry at the window
a sparrow’s dream

                        velvety soft night
                        warm cat purrs at dreamy feet
                        soft eyelids closing

white wind pushing clouds
blueberry birds dotting sky
twinkle in cats eye

burnt orange leaves on vines
cover a fence in autumn
spiderweb playground 

a rippling field bends
tall cornstalks dance head to head
wild rhythms of fall

eerie sounds at dusk
send a tingling chill of fright
first cat fight of fall

petal paw prints pounce
starry eyes twirling with tail
black rose under moon

         orchestral stars played
                 moon and shadows did a dance
                          cat purred in cadence

Dreary winter days.
Warm house, full dish, fresh litter.
We are happy cats.

Some dog taught me this,
your head sinks and your butt floats.
It’s called cat paddling!


For “Primal Instinct” contest.    And the dog says’ “Oops, My Bad!”

Flea's to a dog is
                                                        no different to a cat. 
                                       Both feed to survive.

Lies in shadow
      A striped sleepy cat
         Summer heat

For Charles Henderson
Contest Haiku

The songs of endings:
lifeforms: the unintended
consequences king.

Cat or not a cat
Schrödinger's key question of our
quantum universe

mournful cries fill the air
mother bird calling for its baby
eaten by the cat

mantis catches butterfly
I am sad: yet, that is 
the way of nature

loud feathered thud
- flight into eternity
deceptive glass pane

The lamp post is lit


                                    Bugs flutter towards the light


                                      The cat waits to pounce
