Meowvelous Monday haiku and sunflowers for you!
Meowvelous Monday Haiku
- Giant sunflowers form the perfect curtain of shade around the catio so us cats have plenty of shaded spots.
- Bees, birds, and butterflies love them so we get replays of Nature TV on loop all day long.
- Sunflowers are also on the list of cat-friendly plants which are non-toxic to cats so we don’t have to worry if my pal Jimmy the plant snacker decides to use his thumbs to grab a piece!
- They tolerate periods of drought and like true beauty queens, always manage to look good in all conditions!
- Love them or hate them, but our bandit friends, the squirrels go nuts for them!
Come inside my lair
I have plenty of secrets
One or two I can share
Hello busy bee
Your pollen dance delights me
A ring of sunshine
Will the rain come soon?
When water flows through your veins
Senses awaken
Cheery faces kiss
The southern skies of Summer
Daylight forever
Pitter patter paws
On daytime tunnel patrol
The Meadowlark sings
Are you enjoying your Summer days? Or are you looking forward to ‘Leaf Fall’?

We have a lot of ‘volunteer’ sunflowers round our bird feeders, we just left then to grow big, and they sure are pretty now. We had over an inch if pouring rain earlier today…hooray, we needed it, (SW Michigan). The chickadees are already raiding them…the squirrels, not so much…Dalton takes care of them…MOL!
Love your Haiku’s!
Sounds like you’re also in that heat wave! And it’s only a matter of time before the squirrels come to raid the treasure!
Great haikus. Sun flowers always make us smile.
Y’all sure look pretty darn cool to me and those sunflowers sure are pretty!
Wonderful haikus! We were having so much rain, I was wishing I could share it with those of you not getting any. Just doesn’t seem right! I love all your sunflowers and it’s great to know they’re nontoxic. Cute pictures!
Thank you! It’s raining somewhat but not enough. Humidity is stifling!
Great photos and nice haikus.

Thank you, glad you like 🙂

Heh heh Mr. Jack has that effect on the ladies MOL
Wonderful haikus, as always! I love that water drop shot in the leaf. We had a drought here and know all about water restrictions. Hope you get some rain soon!
Mom and I luv all your Haikus, Chirpies! And the tummy to the sky photo is a sunflower in our eyes! The squirrelygig planted a sunflower last year that grew great big and tall in Mom’s flower bed. I’m still waiting to see if one will sprout this year. Hugs and tummy tickles!
