City Life
With all her courage
she faced the traffic
running the risk
that she might get hit –
buses and cars
thrumming and rumbling
passed ’round her –
but minute and fierce
she dodged them all
’cause she’d learnt her letters
about cars and traffic
from her mother’s pride.
Ah, how the urge was on her
to get back home
she knew he was waiting
and she was chilled to the bone …
scratching at the door
mewing piteously
she pulled at the link
she’d formed to his heart …
he opened the door
petted and hugged her
then lovingly poured her
a bowl of warm milk.

Inspired by Brynn and The Sunday Whirl Wordle
yes,dog’s are lovely creatures
friendly, loyal and true blue
a boy’s or girl’s best friend
but I love the independence
of the noble aristocat.

Why two haiga with Brynn … I couldn’t decide between the British biscuits and the American cookies .. more or less 😉

I’m exploring … I still don’t have oodles of time, but I was introduced to this fav blog … Graeme Sandford – Guilty of Rhymes of Passion yesterday through several different people and found myself fascinated! Below is a poetry formed called the Manx(u) form, an invented form which is an ode to cats with a 2, 2, 1, 6, 1, 4, ! syllable count (ending with “!”) introduced to him by Jane at Jane’s Musing … and yes Virginia … haiku poets often add ku or u to existing or new poetic forms 😉
Brynn, Brynn
sexy
thing –
like a diva – stretching
(snap)
just another shot
!
composed
she sits
and
with a plaintive meow
says:
now, where’s the fish
