cats – Selected haiku

16 May 2021

Kyp wanted to know
if I had pet other cats
on my walk. I had.

cute cats, queued for their

supper, queried my photo-

-graph’s composition

anonymous cat
pauses evening stroll to give
leisurely greeting

greeted two cats on
my way to the postal col-
-lection box (meow)

unimpressed by snow,
tortoiseshell cat serves looks cold-
-er than winter storm

suspicious and then
disappointed by our wet
offering, Kyp left

that’s not a gargoyle
on the china cabinet:
he loves wet food; purrs

I made two carts to
go under my bed. alas,
the cats dislike them

my muse requests pats,
a fair price for inspiring
my insta poems

Adelaide worries
I might put her between bread,
eat the sandwich
