Tiny Paws Poetry: The Pollen Problems Collection

March 29, 2025 by Tyson Leave a Comment

🐾 This collection is part of the Injured Dignity series 🐾

Haiku by Tyson the Cat

Invisible Foe
Air full of whispers.
They stick to my royal coat.
I am betrayed. Twice.

Betrayal by Breeze
A warm breeze arrives.
I greet it with open paws.
It slaps me with dust.

The Wipe-Down Woes
Cloth of shame appears.
I suffer indignity
for the sake of pride.

Vow of Revenge
Next spring, I shall rise.
I will outsmart the pollen.
Or nap through it all.

Tarnished Glory
Once sleek, midnight black.
Now I wear a coat of green.
The shame is vivid.
