Haikus.

Found some old haikus that I wrote from a while back, thought I would share. I think poetry is lame, but a good haiku says it all and succinctly to boot (no one likes your book of poetry, sorry).

On Sophie:

Adorable curls

Sophia the Beautiful

Face of an angel

On Jasmine (the dog that I adopted but fell in love with my parents' house and weenie dog so now she lives there):

Furry and cuddly

My dog with the tiny face

Life is her buffet

The following are some I wrote in honor of Vania's cat, Pud. I wrote the following through his eyes. If you've never met Pud, then these will be lost on you:

On Sophie:

White perilous foe

A worthy adversary

Death has chubby legs

Once a peaceful life

Then came hairless stray. Now,

perpetual fright

On Owners:

Nuggets on my back.

The owners ignore. Oh well,

time to puke again

Milk caps, ink pens, Friend

What more could a cat want? YAY!

A game of Fingers.

On Life:

Stately I parade

Gracing people with a glimpse

Now, look at my butt
