Tuesday Haikusday: October

You may not realize this, but I’m quite a fan of October. Let me tell you why. Eh hem…:

I present to you "the 50-pound pumpkin."
I present to you “the 50-pound pumpkin.”

Leaves falling, twirling

Sailing down amongst my paws.

My toes will crunch you.

.

I smell pumpkin pie.

But evil FODs won’t share it.

I step in your pie.

.

Apples are crunchy.

Too big for my little teeth.

I smack them instead.

I taste this to see if it will be good.
I taste this to see if it will be good. It wasn’t.

What do you love about fall? Let me know!

Love,

Crepes.

PS.  Our friend Marmalade from Cole and Marmalade on Animalist just had emergency surgery! Apparently it was quite expensive. There’s a little fund going on that you can view here. If you’re a Cole the Black cat fan, or you know someone who is, please share the message that our friends are in need. They could use a helping paw.

  • Nice haikus, Crepes. We love fall too. The cool weather is nice – Mom and Dad took us out on our leashes yesterday!

  • Hi Crepes, we are glad you like fall cause we don’t. Fall means winter is coming….brrrr.. The falling leaves are crispy instead of thriving and green. Nope….not our season but what can a couple of girls do about it? Not much….so inside is where most of our day is spent.

    We didn’t know Marmalade but wish him a speedy recovery….emergency surgery is scary.

  • I love the smell of fall, the spices aroma in the air (not just from all the baking) the cooler weather that gets my pups spunky! seeing kitties chasing fallen leaves, and the fact that it means the holidays are getting closer. For me holidays are sonomus with (more) family.

  • Fall is a wet chill
    Through breeze full of fireplace smoke
    My furs keep me warm!

    We love Fall at my house Crepes…….we had our first fire in the fireplace night before last – that makes it official! We don’t know Marmalade but we do hope he is alright – emergency surgery is kinda scary!

    Hugs, Sammy

  • Crepes, we love your haiku!

    This is our Mom’s favorite time of year, so here goes…

    Now October calls
    the changing of Nature’s Guard
    before Winter comes.

    Amid swirling leaves
    the pumpkins and goblins dance,
    racing moon and clouds.

    Dark scents linger long,
    intoxicating my soul.
    With earth I am one.

    Purrs…into the Night,
    Serafina, Arya, Bean, Iggy, Teddy, and Useless
