Caturday

laying down for the nap stretching out long sleepy orange kitty snow sprinkles down paw prints all around kitty runs to hide longing to get out watching birds and squirrels oh, no, hot paws coming thru the trees lights turn on cat eyes shining look into the sky wild and free bobcat on mountain top moonlight stars twinkle prowling the night skies morning light cat sleeps morning walking path the sun gets in eyes lingering heat cat sighs 4 / 7 / 2013

Very clever, indeed. Cat eyes are something special, as is the poet who writes about them. Thank-you for being here and providing all this fun!

Lovely set of cat haikus. The title is a clever play on words. So fun to see their antics come to life through these words.

Those little precious indoor cats and kittens love those birds, squirrels, rats, mice, chipmonks, and they will eat snakes also..Enjoyed your very creative and unique work about the two kinds of cats..The house cat and bobcat which are very much kin...Thanks for stopping by..Those snakes are scary. Some are deadly even though now there is antivenom which can save lives but not every time..Sara
