Cat's Eyes

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

So, sparrows have nightmares too. Do they awaken in a cold sweat?! ~ Big Bird

Thanks for stopping to visit the cat. I find myself trying to figure out "what is that cat thinking"...and I believe sparrows are always on his mind".

Clever haiku can go a couple different ways! A dreaming bird or sarcasm. And that emotion. I can picture it! I expect more to happen… woot woot! Fave!

Kim, our neighbors cat stops by for "kitty brunch" every day. When he can't go out he sits at a window staring at the birds.
