Notes About The Poem
Went out one day to take the cat some fresh food and there on the cat's plate was a slug..There was only one little spot of jelly left on the plate and the slug was eating it..I guess it had a sweet tooth..Sara

I feel for the poor cat, nasty little creatures those slugs... just add a bit of salt to taste ;). Interesting visuals here Mrs. Sara, and great poetry.

I do like cats - I am notso sure about slugs.You stuck to the 5 7 5 format - which is allto the good. Haiku is a great form. Thanks for your support. Peace &Love Matthew Anish
