Premium Member Winter Drops Hints

winter drops 
hints
in the pre-dawn 
hours
slick surfaces
frost-covered
windshields
last night's
drunks
frozen stiff
carted off
to the morgue

Noggin Hints

While under the tree the apples bombed him
studying while get hit on the noggin
tree showed its wrath
Isaac tried to do math
stumped on the law of gravity problem.

Give Me Hints That Make Sense

Give Me Hints That Make Sense

Give me some hints that do make sense;
Things have been separated by a fence;
Poetry writing,
Is inviting;
Suspense resulted in making you tense.

If you a choice amidst of two,

One to be one billion dollars,

Else be world peace, what then you choose,

Your new Lamborghini colors?

Halloween Hints

The 31st day of the 10th month
How many of you have a hunch?
It is quite an odd day for young and old
However truth may be told

The children play throughout the day
Then by night give quite a fright
In these costumes dark and light
Only seen by serene moonlight…

Subtle hints and lies

How can I, make you move
When I can't find words to describe 
how I feel inside, so I cry.

I close my eyes sometimes.
To pacify the time, this fragile
thing called life.

we all have stars in our eyes
some have dreams that died
it shapes the wake of our life's

Her scent sends me wild With a hint of lavender Wafting from her hair I am no longer myself When she walks into the room

To Sin Prevents Need More Hints

when we were intense
we had been living in tents
with all their extents

having high expense
with huge head that became dense
not making much sense

much intelligence
from sinning which way prevents
need a few more hints

Hints of Orange

Driving to the country,
There was a surprise -
Hints of orange trying
Autumn on for size.

Green is still prevailing;
Summer’s hanging in,
But some leaves are taking
Fall out for a spin.

Chilly nights are coming,
With them Nature’s tints.
Soon there will be orange,
More than just as hints.

Hints of Light

Hints of light you come for me
Glints of hope please rescue me
For I am blind 
Mine eyes lie wide open 
But I fail to see
What is in front of me

Heart give way to truth
Leave me to know
Guide me and show
For pain is only temporary
But true love lasts
It lives more than life
And never slows

Short Cut Hints

Is academic education for human welfare or to kill innocents?
Then why do we practice only to rape a poor for false prints?
We like to live a luxury life but never identify the living dents,
Trying to achieve without honesty and using shortcut hints,
You eat fresh then why is dirt growing in belly to seek mint.

Handy Hints Part1-4

If your second name is file
don't call your son Peter

If horse whispers spoke louder
would the horses not be trained sooner

Save pounds in batteries by only
putting them in the clock when you want to know the time

Make a trip to the zoo more exciting
by dressing as a zookeeper
carrying a gun
and ask people if the have seen a lion

The Callings

"Bitter truth remains bitter, can be sugar coated but underneath it is all the same."

If I could predict,
The happening,
Going to happen,
I would hadn't done this.

If I could change,
The past,
Which has happened,
I could redo it all over.

If only I got,
The calings beforehead,
The callings of future,
I could have save the day.

But the reality,
Which remains,
And will remain,
The same forever.

Spring Colored Hints

Pastel colored emotions Tangerine flavors too Misty blue soft notions Many shades and hues Sweet and salty delights Candy pink colored love Dream shades at nights Fluffy clouds from above All words lavender teases Tickling my mind with peach Yellow color surely pleases As pale green thoughts reach My mind dancing in tints Multi colored sun rays All spring colored hints The sights of springs days

Premium Member The Hints of Fall

I can hear
the wind making snowballs
fading leaves crisping
chattering acorn crazed squirrels
a soft rustle of chilled bird feathers

I can see
low hanging branches
offerings to short nibblers
the beginning blush of a Red Maple
the edge of the day creeping closer

I can feel
the excitement
of distant V’s
chittering sparrows at sunrise
scampering squirrels
school bus arrivals

the hints of fall
gently claiming its season

Premium Member Memorical Hints by Mrs Yolanda Joy Nicholsen

Hints of you wandered 
about amidst the uncharted 
places expected to detour 
emotional haste borrowed
 
from a time where morale
sat on a shelf of self doubt
while you employed balance
I craved difference growth

quite in tuned with your 
mental wrath beneath the
tarnished silver spoon
you seemed to covenant
 
so well an yet I sufficed
the after math as the after
thoughts withered though
we were never meant to be

Premium Member Hints of Blue

The shape of me
Constantly changing 
New forms expressed
Facets exposed
The curves of me angled
Polished
Exposed
Look deep
See the inner me
I do not wish to hide
this is where my soul resides
Yes there are flaws
Exposed by the light
Yet within the complexity
There is more to see
I am a reflection of you
Expressed in colors true
The shape is changing
Rearranging 
You polish
You cut
Reveal
Help me feel
Changing along with all of you
Pockets of diamonds
Multi colored with hints of blue
