Do Not Begrudge This
Do not begrude this,
For it is the fate of every man.
Yet it is feared,
And shunned in many lands.
Causes problems, and sometimes gaps,
Can hobble the strongest, and make memory laps.
What is this danger we all face?
For being a part – of the human race.
Growing old.
Has Wings But Cannot Fly
What has wings but can not fly.
Is enclosed, but can outside also lie.
Can open itself up or close itself away.
Is the place of kings and queens,
And doggerel of every means.
What is it upon which I stand,
Which can lead us to different lands?
A stage.
Up A Hill
Up a hill,
Down a hill,
Over them I may roam,
But after all my walking,
There’s no place like my own.
Your home.
Little Cat’s Feet
It comes in on little cat’s feet,
Is neither sour, nor sweet.
Hovers in the air,
And then is not there.
Fog or mist
Sweet Tooth
Sweet tooth, ah shoot,
All gone, we all long,
For another piece.
Candy
Many and One
They are many and one,
They wave and they drum,
Used to cover a stare,
They go with you everywhere.
Your hands.
All Those Legs
Two legs sat upon three legs with one leg in his lap.
In comes four legs, grabs one leg, and runs off with him.
Up jumps two legs, grabs up three legs, throws it after four legs,
and makes him bring back one leg.
Who are we?
One leg is a leg of mutton. Two legs is a person. Three legs is a stool. Four legs is a dog.
In Oven But Not Baked
What must be in the oven yet can not be baked?
Grows in the heat yet shuns the light of day?
What sinks in water but rises with air?
Looks like sand, but is fine as hair?
Yeast.
Speaks Without Words
What is it that speaks without any words?
And can be loudly and distinctly heard?
Will drive away friend, and foe alike.
And is enough to make a stolid man’s face alight?
Flatulence.
