Best Hint Poems

When leaves in whispers say goodbye
With a hint of autumn’s sun rise
Once of vibrant life to mutate
In combat with the chilling eve.

Soon to waltz within heartless breath
When leaves in whispers say goodbye
From mighty mother trees shaking
In fall’s perpetual cycle. 

No more gathering of morns dew
Within...

The hint of autumn leaves in breeze
As northern states begin to chill,
When August morning frost in trees
Drapes canopies o’er sylvan hill.

As summer waltzes her last dance,
The hint of autumn leaves in breeze
Adds to the season her romance,
When dappled colors start to tease

As nature offers her...

Oh goldenrod how bright your blaze
though blooming sunrays bittersweet —
your tint the hint of crisper days
when dusk arrives on hastened feet

amidst the green tall grass you gleam
oh goldenrod how bright your blaze!
gold dust the stuff of Nature’s dream
rich sprays of flame the monarchs praise

a beacon’s...

The hint of his scent invited me to enter
a forbidden door, running male fingers along
the fabric of my back…silhouettes melt
on the wall; jealous stars drift afar as
moonlight trails along with heaving sighs.
And my cheery lips heat beyond eyes
smoldering in flickers of candles lit,
just there, I...

A hint of red and yellow
Amongst a sea of green
A sign that change is coming
To the forest canopies

This morn's air is slightly chilled
Much more than in past months
And squirrels scurry 'cross the ground
Collecting all their nuts

There are no children playing
Nor in the swimming pools
The streets...

A hint of Autumn I can feel
in August when it starts to cool.
It's a small pup at my heel -
not too noticeable – yet real!

Though changes yet I cannot see,
a hint of Autumn I can feel.
More comfortable I’ll soon be.
September’s days are my ideal!

Like fruit...

She gazes past the golden fields 
beyond the wheat that summer yields 
above the solitary oak, so still
where a lazy hawk, with circles fill. 

He feels the drifts in windswept skies
her soul goes drifting, by and by
she’s carried from her lonely bed
to fly away, no...

The first hint

I stood at the gate
and was shocked to find
the clasp unfastened

It swung freely on its hinges
as if it had not a care
to whom might enter or leave

I looked out towards the horizon
across the wintered over field,
a stark white landscape

I saw nothing but barren...

I was feeling restless and empty
And I was feeling low.
All I believed was a white paper
An ordinary pen did do.

I wanted to put a question, there
To ask first - who are you?
Fathomless emotions, eager to converse
Should I assess -are you true?

I know there is much...

Zebra stripes 
you instantly know what animal it is,
Xanthic  you couldn't call it
white and black are its colours.
Viewing and naming an animal
usually needs a certain knowledge
that comes through reading and observing 
Stripes are more prevalent than spots on animals
Remaining beasts are mostly of one...

Descending acorns 
Now under a hunters moon 
Falling with a plunk

The heightened sparks of joyful days
That cheer us up in many ways,
When music raps, as voices drawl
Before the morning winds enthrall...
For his chime is a faithful song
That lifts me up where I belong,
Before star's luster mark a name
To our talks, our gazes, aflame.

Somehow the hints...

Hint of Autumn

Sunstar wakes, Aurora reacts,
As light skews her southernmost sky,
A roost rouses, a rooster crows,
Henhouse's wood handle lifts up.

A replete farm inclined to rouse,
Sunstar wakes, Aurora reacts,
Four-year-old farmhand gets busy,
Baskets of fresh eggs walked with care.

A kitchen's stove burners...

Still, a hint of musk
remained behind on 
 the shirt he last wore,
a faint reminder of skin
 pressed up against mine,
the essence of sweat &
 tears that lingers a lifetime...

Nature’s handiwork God designed
Showcasing wondrous color blends
Foliage of amber, crimson, brown
Radiates transformation grand. 

Evoking awe for masterpiece

Midst pathway carpeted with gold
Welcomes blessings* heaven bestows.

Assured with gracious beauty wealth
Exuding peace and bliss sublime 
Nature’s handiwork God designed
Inspires hope kindling hearty mirth.

Faith soars toward...
