FRIDAY WRITINGS # 228 POETS AND STORYTELLERS UNITED

HAIKU
my sweet cheeky boy
warm sunshine in such sad times
so easy to love


tea time
marmalade boy's
favourite feline game
serve me salmon or the teacup 
takes a tumble


SHADORMA

i do like
a comfortable bed
to relax
and dream in
particularly with all
the embroidery


a love story
so pleased
they found each other
always with him 
never to be forgotten







canned fish for my meals
mostly never on time
i prefer to eat fresh lobster
come quickly
save me
how can a little cat survive this

CINQUAIN

this was
not my idea
can't stand all the fan mail
leonardo blames me for it
not true

  2. I don't have a cat or a pet but these are sweet little tributes and notes. Pets are endearing.

    Have a lovely day.

  3. I laughed out loud at the cat's plea to "Save me!" I know they really do feel hungry, but cats put so much drama into propositions that meals be served early!
