A very clever and humorous haiku and a great series of photos to compliment your entry. I enjoyed this. Nice to see a five syllable word employed in the final line. Cheers, Kelly

Amusing, cute and clever in the haiku style. Good job with writing this and image to accompany does bring a smile. Cats do the darndest things.

LOL. Now this is really cute, especially with the pictures that you used. The only thing I might suggest is something that was suggested to me a long time ago, and it was a similar poem I wrote with a picture of just the puppy's nose showing through a knot-hole in a fence - the poem needs to stand alone, without the picture. (I am not being condescending, merely passing on what I learned, yes?) Does this poem work on its own? Is there enough of a mental picture of who the "I" is in the poem?

Best of luck in the contest.

Nice entry for the Laughter prompt - good to see a humorous haiku, too.

Weak point perhaps that the poem really doesn't work too well without the artwork, so how much of the humour comes from the words and how much from the picture?

Good luck.

Steve

I'm still chortling! Your pictorial sequence is a choice addition to your 5-7-5--how neat that "asphyxiation" is 5 syllables!! Best wishes in the laughter contest- Joan

This is adorable and certainly gave me a chuckle. That cat looks like it keeled over from the fumes it exhaled from that shoe. It certainly looks stiff as a board. Excellent verse and paired with the accompanying photos it tell such a woeful story. Poor cat.

This is truly a smile maker in both word and picture. It is so quick and snappy that it leaves the reader with little to think about except it's overall "cuteness" and frankly IMHO, this form of poetry offers little more. Well done! HIS GRAYNESS PS: I'm sorry to be out of sixes, well deserved!
