Sultry Summer Sunday

oh,  summer breeze,
     like an ocean through the trees,
     a cat, licks ice cream.

Dear Pangie, a wonderful summer haiku. Would that be Irene licking your ice cream, by any chance? I enjoyed the sensory imagery, and especially loved your last line. Warmest wishes and hugs, my friend.. ~Susan

Susan, Irene! How sweet you know her name,. Indeed she’s into ice cream and coconut yogurt. Glad you critiqued the haiku and liked that last line. I could envision her doing that. Tee gee. Sorry, I am late responcing, Pangie xx

A "cool" write, Pangie! Irene has great taste if she is the pussy cat licking ice cream. Jeff is so picky - he won't eat people food but keeps me broke eating expensive cat grub! Bob

Bob...Irene limes ice cream and breads? I think she must have been raised in a bakery. Irene gets plentiful cat food. But loathes cat snacks? She is ger own person. Pangie xx
