Sleeping cat — Photo by Vic Burkhammer

Have fun writing haiku. Click here to send your original, light-hearted haiku to MountainWord. 

Call in and leave haiku on my voicemail too at (304) 348-5184. If someone answers the phone, tell them you’re trying to reach Vic’s voicemail. Then call again.

Here are some funny cat haiku from Strangeplaces.net to get you going:

You never feed me.
Perhaps I’ll sleep on your face.
That will sure show you.

You must scratch me there!
Yes, above my tail!
Behold, elevator butt.
 

The rule for today:
Touch my tail, I shred your hand.
New rule tomorrow.
 

In deep sleep hear sound
cat vomit hairball somewhere
will find in morning.
 

Grace personified.
I leap into the window.
I meant to do that.
 

Blur of motion, then –
silence, me, a paper bag.
What is so funny?
 

You’re always typing.
Well, let’s see you ignore my
sitting on your hands.
 

Oh no! Big One
has been trapped by newspaper!
Cat to the rescue!

If you call in or send poems, be sure to add a phone number and a brief bio of yourself. Your number will not be used for any other purpose and will be deleted. The haiku will remain yours, not mine.
