This is a series of short sonnets based on suggestions by Vocal friends. I will include a suitable video as well.

The challenge is โ€œGive me a subject and five words and I will try and create a sonnetโ€.

This is from Cathy Holmes:

Subject: Cat

Words: fuzzy wuzzy bitey little shit.

ึŽึŽึŽึŽึŽึŽึŽึŽึŽึŽึŽึŽึŽึŽึŽึŽึŽ

You fuzzy furry feline

Running all around the room

Waking in a wuzzy fright

Two bright eyes shine in the gloom

ึŽ

Feed me or Iโ€™ll get bitey

You little hungry furball

Scratch my leg. Shit thatโ€™s hurty

Four A M I fill your bowl

ึŽ

Always hungry, Iโ€™m asleep

Always Awake, dead of night

Always scratching, show your teeth

Sure the birds will get a fright

ึŽ

You are my cat, I love you

Miaou itโ€™s always Miaou

ึŽึŽึŽึŽึŽึŽึŽึŽึŽึŽึŽึŽึŽึŽึŽึŽึŽ
