I can't write Haiku
about Austin the Feline.
Will do limerick.
~
Young Austin while stalking a mouse
Climbed up to the top of the house!
He got such a fright
As he fell from a height
And landed on top of a grouse
~
There was a young tabby called Tigger
Who ate Austin's food with some vigour.
He rushed at the bowl,
the poor starving soul,
Each day he was rounder and bigger.
~
We are worried about Austin's addiction
to treats - this causes some friction!
He clawed mother's thumb,
so was kicked up the b*m;
He then sulked and had a conNIPtion.
* Please note that no animal was harmed during the writing of these limericks, though the odd human was bloodied!
Fibber...the first stanza IS a Haiku.
ReplyDeleteLOL KL, I must try harder to get it wrong! :P
ReplyDeleteI love Austin's "don't...you...dare" face :P
ReplyDeleteYou should make a book of cat tales :D I know how...

ReplyDeleteMy fave is the "conNIPtion!" MOL!

ReplyDeleteYou're welcome, Nicky. We aim to amuse :) xx
ReplyDeleteBloodied humans...pffftt! That's a given.
ReplyDeleteAustin - you somehow always seem to teach us something - one day it's math, now it's creative writing!! What a delightful limerick and we love the the last picture of you... it looks like you have hit your last level of patience...
ReplyDeleteAdmiral, speaking as a veteran of many a skirmish with the claw, I now realise that. *sigh* lol
ReplyDeleteDeb, Oh he's a clever lad, that's for sure. That picture says it all, huh!
That was a very funny Limerick !!!
ReplyDeleteI´m glad that no cat was harmed during the writing :)
P.S Found ma way to your blog through Mr Puddy :)
Hi there Kjelle Bus. That Mr Puddy is a great guy :))
ReplyDeleteGreat haiku and limerick! You folks got it goin' on in the clever department!
ReplyDeleteLimericks are lovely! As is this one, for sure! We thoroughly enjoyed it!
ReplyDeleteLOVE the limericks!!!! SO clever. As for the bloodied writer...that's the risk she takes.
ReplyDelete; )

We're impressed. It's not easy writing Haiku or limericks. Austin, you have talented humans.
ReplyDeleteMost limericks are simply written,
ReplyDeleteas long as there's a kind of rhythm.
You'll run out of words,
but there are plenty of nerds,
who will supply all you need - it's a given!
Well you can't win every time! lol
Thanks for the comments everyone x
