Clockwork Cat

Clockwork Cat

Pats my sleepy cheek.
Hits my eyelids, boops my nose.
Yelling please get up!

This sweet haiku really made me miss our cat. He was special and I could easily relate his actions script to your wonderful poem Edlynn. Loved it! : ) xxoo

Awww! I’m sorry your dear cat is gone. They leave such a hole for a long time. This is Charley who wakes me every morning with his pats and his watchful bright blue eyes.

Fur alarms are THE BEST and most reliable. I have two sweet fur babies.

Thank you! I love these furry alarm clocks. Much better than the manmade kind. I see two blue eyes as wonderful as the sky each morning once Charley can get me to open mine. He always wakes me at the same exact time every day. How does he know?

Thank you! I wasn’t sure if this might be the Senryu genre instead!
