tattle tail on what's hidden
in hesitancy

that keeps everyone guessing

No Escape

The leopard can't escape the zoo
No matter how much he has plotted
I'm guessing that the reason was
Because he'll always be spotted!

all praise 
then he starts second-guessing...
everything!

Sweet Demons

Three O'clock; I wake
Dancing with my sweet demons
More sleepless, bleak nights
Of doubt and stark misery
Second-guessing my motives.

What Is It

The Secret Santa silently sat spying
 A giggling girl grabbing and guessing gifts
 the pretty packages pummel down
 bending branches, bouncing blue balls.

or peaceful vines
to turn a fork to tines

fluffy kisses guessing
without dressing

on occassion
pink ovation

to feast and dine

Alllow Things To Be Lawful

We may allow things to be lawful,
While between them would waffle;
Guessing game,
We must  blame;
Already had appeared to be awful.

Now there is quite a poem.

Said we are going on more vacations;

Her Royal Highness


Elizabeth, long may she reign,
Possesses her own Royal Train.
It's only a hunch
But I'm guessing for lunch
One might tickle taste buds with Champagne!

Get Off Your Shackles

get off your shackles
loves luminance
is infinite
go
touch me not
leave me alone
giggling girls
puberty smiles
guessing red blood
spotted
then gushed
guilt descended

Misty

By dawn
The daylight
Shining bright
Scenes unreal
A place in settings
Resting
Misty waters
Blossoms abroad
Nesting
Finding the seashells
Guessing the wind
Seemingly odd
As the world in a spin.

Message In a Bottle

If all my words could reach your soft ears,
then tender thoughts could be more clear.
You would then know what was missed.
And we might have not walked
away and just kissed.
Second guessing 
when and why
for the
day.

Where It Lies?

Not to far
It comes with a struggle
build with courage.
Not hard to find,
guessing is not an option
But determination,
without turning back.
Searching where it lies
I find without doubts,
My dream draws me
near to the future.

Second Guessing

This word or that word,
the length of the line

The meter, the rhythm,
to rhyme or not rhyme

Each voice comes unsettled,
new phrases diverse

Is it this way or that way
—when penning the verse

Premium Member Empire State Building and Lightning

How many times has the Empire State Building been struck by lightning?
I was guessing three or four then I remembered how old she is.
So, I guessed twenty times.
If I took that times five, I would be a lot closer to an accurate guess.

Premium Member guessing which pumpkin is Barbies

can you guess which pumpkin is mine? Barbie says to us.
No idea, lies Auntie Mame, Uncle Henry and my dog Gus.
I roll my hazel eyes at their pretensions, for next to the sink
lies a gorgeous long-lashed-eyed pumpkin completely in pink
