his garden grave (haiku & tanka)

no pawprints
on the kitchen floor -
this rainy day


her tears
in the cat basket
his toy mouse


one last stroke
for the cat's ears -
his garden grave
where blackbirds
sing from a tree


empty lane
no sign of a black cat
remains



Author notes

A tribute to Tom, who inspired many haiku.

Please tell me what you think
