• Riddle Poems: Heroes

    1.

    Empty wings freely hung,

    Finger and rope have strung.

    Precarious eels won’t hinder heels

    So footsteps go unflung.

    ~

    2.

    Agate lines of ages

    Grant us the years it gauges.

    Its besparred mast shorn, the chipmunks mourn,

    Causing stools and pages.

    ~

    3.

    Drawn for hearth and wagon.

    Chartered form of lagan.

    An oath of warrant, thwarting torrent,

    Wind, fire, and dragon.

    ~

    4.

    The world’s dearest digit.

    Algorithmic widget.

    Doing the work for student and clerk.

    No more tomes to fidget.

    ~

    5.

    Jellyfish of the sky

    Give us a chance to fly.

    A savior of risky behavior.

    GERONIMO! BANZAI!

    6.

    Makes his buys in bundles.

    Price, he never mumbles.

    Rakes in the dough, right before the show.

    Fixed demand, he humbles.

    7.

    Name rhymes with terrier –

    Made your place airier.

    Drew a new flue in nineteen-aught-two –

    Now life is merrier!

    ~

    8.

    Abject and sordid scroll.

    Awash in great white bowl.

    Unsung tatters for lowdown splatters.

    Extracts putrid egg roll.

    ~

    9.

    β€œIt” borrowed some brainwaves.

    Through dense matter he braves.

    Off-and-on ex is a crimson hex.

    Solemnly he behaves.

    ~

    10.

    Requires a faster break

    Than the less tacky make.

    A sanguine mop for the vital glop.

    Bars an infectious ache.
