Cat Haiku

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?

The mighty hunterReturns

with gifts of plump birds --

your foot just squashed one.

You're always typing.

Well, let's see you ignore

my sitting on your hands.

My small cardboard box.

You cannot see me if

Ican just hide my head.

Terrible battle.

I fought for hours.

Come and see!What's a 'term paper?'

Small brave carnivores

Kill pine cones and mosquitoes,

Fear vacuum cleaner

I want to be close to you.

Can I fit my head

inside your armpit?

Wanna go outside.

Oh, poop! Help!

I got outside!Let me back inside!

Oh no!

Big One has been trapped by newspaper!

Cat to the rescue!

Humans are so strange.

Mine lies still in bed,

then screams;My claws are not that sharp.

My First Blog

I have links to loved ones blogs that I enjoy reading very much but never thought to create one of my own. Until today. As I was talking to sweet Jess about my adventures in art lessons she suggested creating one so she can keep up with my progress. That blog will be entered later:) So today I want to talk about my title. Pieces of April. The story is told that once upon a time my dad was a bit of a hippie. He enjoyed all the perks of the 70's, long hair, doing drugs, awesome clothes, crazy music, ect.... There is a song by Deep Purple called The Pieces of April to which the name April is said only once and you have to listen close to hear it. Now this is an eight minute song with the classic guitar solo that last 4 of those 8 minutes. Rumor has it that when he heard this "deep" song he knew that was what he had to name his first daughter April. So to bring this story to an end here I am. Thanks dad for not backing down and naming me April. Compared to some of the names my mom would have chose I feel lucky. Its a good name.
