Haiku My Heart–Three Cat Tails

Snapseed

El gato negro

Cosmo, Boo, get away, shoo !

My black bratty cat.

The cat of my dreams

travels in strange neighborhoods.

Paw prints on my mind.

The cat lost his heart.

Now he searches land and sea.

He’s lost without it.

The kitty cats came to visit this morning.

Kind of makes sense when you remember that I have three of them.

I was also inspired by one of my favorite artists, Lynne Hoppe, who was playing around with faces, kitty cat ears, and Suzi Blu’s book. 

I am not feeling very inspired in the studio these days.

I just seem to feel like playing with little bits, instant gratification stuff.

That’s okay though.

I know inspiration for bigger things will return one day soon.

Speaking of little bits, I did a bit of a sprucing up around the blog, as you may have noticed.

If you can believe it, this is my 699th post !

I am away next week so I am thinking that the 700th post will have to be a giveaway/celebration post so that people can leave me comments for the week and I will give away the prize when I return.

Stay tuned for that this weekend, Beautiful Ones !

In the meantime, enjoy your Friday and lots of fun haiku with the gang.

Much love !

    Man oh man, I am LOVING this background!! If you think about the # of rocks you have painted and phrased and sent out into the world, this is probably not even touching that number!!

    Doing little bits when inspiration strikes is the way to go when you aren't feeling "huge" inspiration in the studio. You are keeping your hand in and that is what is important.

    And a 700th post to come?? THAT makes me giddy!!!! xoxoxox
