Nine Haiku

waking from her nap
the snow leopard rises-
looking for a place to sleep

a kitten sleeps
dreaming of now and then-
her inner lion found

she hunts
working for her prey and pride-
he sleeps and signs the checks

the jungle king
is not dead-
just cat nipped

wolves dance
in the shepherd’s dream-
puppy love

so many flowers
so few bees-
bizz, buzz, bizzy

white breakers
great white shark-
both end the ride

riding the waves
ignoring the deep-
fast food

the ocean roars
i can’t see the lion-
the hunt is on

Lori, your haiku remind me of Jack Kerouac's. His didn't follow traditional form either. But they captured the traditional essence. And that's what you do, too.

I love the imagery! Technically, though, they don't follow Haiku form. Maybe just call them triplets? :)

Your 'Kus truly captivate, Lori; and they are truly your forte. Again I cannot decide which is my favorite; they are all so good.

This is a great collection! I loved the humor in:

"the jungle king
is not dead-
just cat nipped "

And the strength in :

"
a kitten sleeps
dreaming of now and then-
her inner lion found "
