Feline Football Haiku

Feline Football- English Haiku

    Cat on all fours crouched.
    Grape football hit with 
    swift paw.
    Punt, calico wins!

Love it, love it, love it. In a haiku form, you created the image in my mind of a cat chasing grape. TOUCHDOWN! Perhaps I have failed to mention that I am a fan of football as well as cats. :)

Hi Panagiota, cute and fun - Feline Football - it's when they catch a mouse that I walk away. Hugs, Jenny.

Greetings, Chris! I struggled over posting this haiku, The cat is marvelous with a grape. I adopted her and OMG, she was declawed. She has so many toys she cannot use, grapes and rings from milk bottles? She loves.. The Punter and PanagiotA

Hey Anne Lise. Glad you enjoyed. Bless you for a dear comment. The only great poets here do comment, the rest use us like an outdoor mat. To clean off their feet and move on. I hate seeing no replies. After all a poet put their heart in it. Sheesh,even a T.Y. Would do. Maybe I am too soft hearted! Love, Panagiota
