The cat, full of grace.
Quick and silent like ninjas.
Yet peaceful in ways.

Never lie, steal, cheat, or drink. if you must lie, lie in the arms of the one you love. If you must steal, steal away from bad company. If you must cheat, cheat death. And if you must drink, drink in the moments that take your breath away.Will Smith

I LOVE CATS!

Passing over that sudden declaration, however, I will go on to say that I liked this haiku; it's brief but accurate. That's a brilliant way to describe felines: peaceable ninjas.
