TANKA TUESDAY CHALLENGE NO# 77


cats tread carefully
seeking comfort and safety
they know the best place

CINQUAIN

sometimes
an old suitcase
will do to stay safe and
hide away in puss can't be too
careful




this garden could be
full of goblins a cat must
proceed with caution

    cats are graceful, most of the time and know how to tread lightly. The photo of that cat with the statue is heartwarming. Cats are so cute indeed. thanks for sharing Rall

    All of these poems are great, Rall! Cats know all about trepidation. Lol! Thanks for participating this week!
