Pitter patter paws

A cozy warm place to sleep

Purring up a storm

stroking black velvet

until her tiny rumble . . .

becomes a huge purr


April 6, 2022
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.

a gift to the host

neighbour’s cat walks through the door

smelling of wild mint

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

               Winter Storm


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

like twins they indeed do become

warm, sleepy, peaceful bodkins

in God's universe, love and the sun

                 Showery leaping
                 Hungry calico cat
                 Feeds under flowers

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

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

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

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

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

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

nesting birds flutter 
 a birdbath is safe haven…

For Charles Henderson
Contest Haiku

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!”

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

striking chartreuse eyes
   my true companion has these...
      beautiful kitty


written 1/11/2014

the cat acts crazy,
because it read your mind
think like a flower

Welcome to my home
furry little wanderer
relax till home found

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

Attic floorboards creak
Something seeks a memory
Sleep and leave it be



#-12
I'm sure there are two
Another cat sneaked inside
My cat helps it hide

                                         The lamp post is lit


                                    Bugs flutter towards the light


                                      The cat waits to pounce






First try at Haiku

         Lies in shadow
      A striped sleepy cat
         Summer heat
