I shine bright like the future,

yet I reside in the dark folds of clothing like a caveman,

buzzing as I flop and rotate.

I connect to others at an instant,

yet I fail to function fully with no fulfilling force of energy.

My speed can be smooth like butter

but in general, I am just a man’s tool for fun.

I buzz the echoes of millions of conversations quietly,

yet I am one of humanity’s great beauties.

Try as I might, my physical body cannot fly high.

My vision, if cracked, can damn me.

My heart is that of accumulations of innovations

I have no time for such questions

I am valuable to everyone

Though I have no lyrics I’ve been sang like a song

I am change anew

Imbedded in insight

I spread like fire

Lives and dies but never alive

Demonstrated throughout history

I ding when discovered

Out of sight but not of mind

Movements start with me

I am bulletproof

# data[].attributes.body
I’m in your mind every second of the day
I make you keep your eye on the clock
I even make you do math
You count down your hours to see me
Everyday is just the same
I am there when you are tired
I keep you warm and make you rest
I am what makes you happy

# data[].attributes.body
Like glue shutting your doors shut

As fickle as mice on ice

Without me, navigation is no issue

My impact is knives to skin

My intentions are dark

I run from your finger

Pick as you may, pick as you might

A bother, I am, I follow all that I can

To slip, crunch, slime, over your dimes

I never miss a beat, im there as soon as you wake up

And ruin the start of every day

# data[].attributes.body
I am the home for the Sea

I am the sound of the motion

Spinning and swirling and twisting and curling

Look a bit closer and see

That my beauty is truly unspoken

My luster, gleams like a light

Glistening right where I open

Surfing the Reef I reside

Under a blanket-like ocean

Under the sand where I lie

One over here, one over there

Peaking around with my eyes

# data[].attributes.body
Can be as clear as a window

But also, as white as a sheet

Stealthy sneaking through the shadows

Is a stray trying to find where it belongs

An eternal existence

It is the air all around us

Can be as subtle as a slight breeze

Whether you chose to believe it or not

Can be heard as the howling of the wind

Scares most with its presence

# data[].attributes.body
After Lunch I’m a treat you crunch

I’m layered like an onion

But surely you won’t shed tears

I’m a zebra you can eat

I’m not the sandwich you think

I’m a sandwich but sweet

I come in all sizes, but always same shape

I’m like a tire, circular, not straight

I grow old with age, so don’t miss out

I’m best fresh, right into your mouth

# data[].attributes.body
I am rotten to the core

I’m as CRUNCHY as chips

I’m hard on the outside and soft on the inside

I can be SWEET like honey

Always amazing after an activity

I fall off trees with too much ease

I’m healthy like celery

One bite, CRUNCH!

I don’t fall far from the tree

One a day, will keep the doctor away

A is for…

# data[].attributes.body
Warm as a blanket

Energetic as a bunny

It is the spark activating a person

The light that starts a day.

Can be as bitter as an ex,

Or as sweet as a crush.

You yearn for it yearly,

Slurping it to survive.

It may cause you anxiety

Keeping you up at night,

But if incorporated in the morning

It starts your day with a bang!

# data[].attributes.body
I Stand tall and brave

I light up the horizon, like the sun

Travelers are towered by this thumping great

I am a grand lady

I’m as heavy as a airplane

I was a gift

There’s Lots of commotion inside my head

My arm hurts from this pose I have to keep

My crown represents all 7 continents

I am America

# data[].attributes.body
It’s a walking headache

Irritating as a IRS

For that you’ll need a coffee break

Leaves you in tears and sweats

It’s like a strict parent that never lets you live

Ruins your day once you hear its name

You can add and you can take

True terror when it’s on the table

Ugh Ugh Ugh

Confusing as a puzzle

Complicated and can make you little bit unstable

# data[].attributes.body
I am as smooth as jazz

I am as cool as a rock star

I have a neck that is tall like a giraffe’s’

But my twangs and cries sound like anything but

I am no larger than the span between two hands

And those hands are at my mercy

I give the trees a voice,

Bring back to life stories long gone

I have mended and treated the souls of legends

But have frightfully failed many of my famous friends

I am every single emotion that has ever been felt

I am a trophy held after a hard-fought victory

What am I?

# data[].attributes.body
I am as warm as a blanket

In the cold i comfort you calmly

When you are cold I hold you before you fold me

Drip drip

The rain falls on my head like rocks

I am as soft as a sheep

You wear me like a hat

I am a lifesaver in the cold

# data[].attributes.body
I am maker of peace

I’m on TV but you can’t see me

I am a force to be reckoned with

I am like a prowling lion

I ignite erupting excitement

When I speak it crackles throughout ears

My luscious looks lock eyes in

I am as strong as an ox

My chiseledness creates envy

I am your worst nightmare

# data[].attributes.body
I can make a lot of noise, but not say anything

But when I do speak, what I have to say may charm you

or may harm you

I reverberate in the atmosphere surrounding you

Ring ring ring

I enter your brain at a constant speed,

Sometimes a beat of silence

Conceived originally by wood and string

I have no physical presence like your typical silver screen

But my impact is much larger than that

I am a window into your imagination

My influence can rub salt in your wounds or be as sharp as a knife

But it can also be as calming as a soft blanket

Or make your heart race as fast as a bullet in the air

# data[].attributes.body
I thrive in the balance between light and shadow

And am dependent on those larger than me

One of me is named after a holiday, or after animals.

One after a sweet, or a season, or a weapon.

Some places I am like a rug covering the otherwise plain floor

Though I do not bloom, I am like a flower uncurling from one point.

I am of green or yellow.

A bit of red?

Or maybe white?

I am a counter spell to a sting

I am, to some extent, a fractal

I am fastened in place, but can spread quickly in a whoosh of wind

Or slowly through the soft saturated soil.

# data[].attributes.body
As orange as an orange,

His hunger is a black hole,

Eating every time greed rears it’s head,

Hate of dogs as vast as the pacific

Creek goes the fridge during

The late lies of losing to a lowly diet

Hogging the couch like loose change,

His life is a dream,

But only because he sleeps all day,

And lays all night

# data[].attributes.body
People search for me but hardly find me

Others look a lot like me but aren’t me

I am as small as a quarter
And as rare as a unicorn
Typically when I’m identified I die

I am fragile like a feather

I swish with the wind

But is stay still my whole life
I am middle ground

I am fortune

# data[].attributes.body
She is insolvable

Like a Puzzle you can quite figure out

Maybe its just not my gift to solve her

Her tongue twisting mind takes my time

She is a case study

One that will make many a man trip up

I couldn’t solve her so I wrote this

She is like an answer you can’t give

Stealing your time will make her feel alive

she took your time once

and another time again

she will keep taking your time

she is the pause before you answer

Hhhmmm

Right now she is in your head

Indecisive you will be from now on

Don’t worry she tricks us all

Down to the last second a struggle will go on

Letting her take your time, your mind

Eventually you’ll figure her out or forever leave her in mystery

# data[].attributes.body
I am silence and stealth.

My eyes gleam like moons in the night.

My paws and my claws are looked at in awe,

But I can be cuddly and calming continually.

I snarl like a lion and hiss like a snake,

But I’m a pillow when it’s needed.

Don’t get too close when I’m angry!

My temper is volatile and flighty.

But when I see a bird, I’ll fill the air

with a chirp, chirp, chirp.

What am I?

# data[].attributes.body
I could be as long as a football field

Or sometimes a twig

Sneaky, slippery, and sly.

When I go *hiss* everyone screams

A rowdy audience would sound quiet.

Fear is here when i am near

Like a little girl seeing a ghost.

I’m not as scary as i seem

People just like to scream!

Going about your green garden,

Who am i?

# data[].attributes.body
Skin like slime
And as white as glue
Slow moving sloth
But a fast cheetah
Ugly like a pug
And as cute as a button
The swish of my tail makes me move faster
Being in the water can be a bother
Worms are my favorite
And I love to hide

# data[].attributes.body
Freckles paint my dark face,

Lightyears of life and love erased.

The shining streaks are etched in me,

For I am dark as the night sky.

Bleeding ears lie

As screeching crows sing

Hardstone, grey, and black.

Words can be gone in an instant,

But not before becoming permanent.

Papyrus screeching like songbirds singing.

I am learning,

Just as I am ancient

# data[].attributes.body
Clink, Clang, Clink

I am a puppet

I flow and float,

Dancing in the air

The whoosh of the wind moves me.

Sound is as fragile as a teacup

Signaling spring like a herald.

I am an orchestra,

I can be a high whistle or a low horn.

Ding! Ping! Ting-a-ling!

# data[].attributes.body
At a glance,

I only repeat back what I am told.

I am as honest as the day is long

And I am fragile like a baby bird.

If you are not careful,

I may shatter

Into millions of pointy pieces

That nip at the tips of your thin skin.

I am you,

And you are me.

You cannot look at me without seeing yourself too.

I am glossy like a gemstone.

I was born from fire and ashes,

And I was molten to become whole.

I can be helpful to some,

I can be your worst enemy too.

# data[].attributes.body
I am the earth’s bounty refined into beauty.

Light as a feather, or heavy like steel,

And as round as the planet itself.

I am a symbol of unity.

Beautiful for your beloved, or a perfect, powerful prison.

I am at home with and fitted to be with you.

Ornate and over the top, or as plain as can be.

Clinks and clanks can be heard in the presence of many.

My often-dazzling appearance enhances the wearer’s beauty,

Whether they are in possession of many of me or only one.

# data[].attributes.body
As the action of a leader could easily be a rock

As a rip could be read as the water of a sob

Half of me is not a hairpiece

And the other is not a sexuality

I am practically universal

Known by Africa, Asia, all

I’m older than steel, bronze, iron

Younger than walking, tribe, and fire

Half of me is a gentle curve

Fraught with tension and danger

The other is semi soft and semi sharp

To be wielded in talent and/or anger

Half begins with the beginning of beginning

The other half starts with an A

I’m meant to be used at a distance

You may not see me until it’s too late

‘Bang’ is not my sound

I am far quieter

Newer models shoot for deadlier

But I remain much lighter

Some associate me with death, others with love

Be it wood, plastic, or metal I’m made of

# data[].attributes.body
I am a story you can show

Or one of your greatest regrets

I can hold wonderful importance

Or just be a jolly jovial jest.

I can show off your fondest memories

To all those you hold dear

Depending on where you put me

I can be a parent’s greatest fear.

I’m as colorful as a rainbow

Or I’m a new moon midnight.

Buzz buzz buzz goes the machine

As I now appear on your skin

Like a bright fashion disaster

I hardly blend right in.

I can speak at great volumes

What you for others to hear

Or I’m as quiet as a whisper

When you’re not at work I appear.

# data[].attributes.body
Packed like sardines, me and my brothers sit silently, waiting for fulfillment.

With a sudden jostle, we all know duty has come knocking, asking for employment.

The bay door slides open, and being the messenger I am, I prepare my proclamation.

A guiding hand lands on me, directing me away from my brethren with animation.

My missile head rests on the wall, and dragging it across, my spirit ignites.

I rush forward. Sulfurous smoke clears, knowing my message excites.

My energy is my timer, and it cares not for my life.

Halting at debris, my work becomes strife.

My greater brethren spring forth.

Life licks forth from my touch

My work is done, so I die.

However, Like a husk,

My empty corpse

Is useless.

# data[].attributes.body
King of salads
Chopping sounds indicate the arrival of a new member
Nothing but greenery for miles
 Resting atop The watercress romaine lettuce
I am a gem among mounds of Basalt
Toasted at 350 degrees 
Tossed in the air like acrobats 
From the pan to the salad bowl
The air to my lungs
Crisped like the leaves of autumn
Becoming one with the dressing
Destroying all No carb diets in the way
Whispering “I love you” with every bite

# data[].attributes.body
I am childhood joy

My task is relentless, impossible

I see all, like an undercover spy

Happy little helpers have prepared

Like an owl, I travel through the night

The cold wind blows snow

The soft bullets berate my face

You may hear my heavy steps

Above you as you sleep

Excitement lingers when you hear

Jingle Jangle

# data[].attributes.body
A mellow breeze

Blows between my burgundy petals

I look at the tree branches swaying in the distance

Waving me “Good morning”

I soak in the last drops of the morning dew

Hoping to bloom to my full potential

I wait for the sun to wake up

To feed and warm me

And give me life

Now that I have fully blossomed

It is my time to shine

Though I am delicate as a snowflake

I am bold and beautiful

I am food for bees,

Gifts to men,

A symbol of love

I come in every color of the rainbow

But am worth a pot of gold

Alas, my time in paradise ends abruptly

As I am ripped from my family

And put on display

My beauty is relegated to

My appearance in a vase

Sweet like honey,

I fill the room with my perfume

Reminiscing about my time in nature

When the wind whispered secrets to me

# data[].attributes.body
I am fingertips  gripping on to the edge of your mind with my knowledge.
I am like a flower , always growing
I am comfort and a nightmare .
I create sobs, tears, and laughter.
I am often left and forgotten while treated with carelessness.
I am filling the air with a rustle while my pages are flipped through continuously.
I bring understanding every time you hear the creaking of my spine .
I am filled with words that are worthy enough to be written within my network of wisdom .
I am words jumping out of the pages and into you .
I am always developing and growing.
I wear similes and metaphors like a scarf .
I am someone else’s thoughts and feelings.

# data[].attributes.body
I am a ball of fluff

My tongue is like

sandpaper

I sleep a lot and get

spunky

after

I can

jump

almost as high as a kangaroo

I feel my spongy paws against the fluffy carpet

I

meow

as loud as I can to be heard.

I am a part of a

huge

family.

I see white strings coming out of my face.

My little pink nose is wet to the touch.

My humans talk in a baby voice to me.

# data[].attributes.body
Black or white

black and white

brown as the dirt

or hazel like the nut

my appearance is fluffy, fuzzy or frizzy

my laziness makes me look like a rock

I spend my days laying in grassy meadows

letting the bugs buzz around my bulging eyes

you can smell me from...                                                                                                                        a mile away

though I don't seem to notice

I am a fountain that provides protein

And some people consider me holy

but I really can't do much
