Haiku Poetry Submission - Frosty and Jet

5 Haikus About My Favorite Subject

Langley Cornwell
Frosty is our dog
Rescued from the pound one day
Love walked in our life

White is Frosty's coat
With speckles on her backside
Pure love in her eyes

Jet is our young cat
John Wayne of the neighborhood
Frosty's life-long friend

Cats were not my thing
Until Jet found us one day
Life is not the same

We wonder aloud
What we used to talk about
When there were no pets

    Oh, look at the nice furry babies! I have a pet cat myself, who is sitting right here purring away. I forget that she is not human sometimes, and I swear she thinks I am her kitten.
