 What Am I? # 17

Here's what you do, read the poem, and see if you can figure it out. In the comments section, you respond with WHERE you figured it out at. Sounds simple? So come on, play along!

 
CLUES:
I've been known to be an athlete,

And often am found under your seat.

Sometimes I have an odor to me,

And in the Summer I can see!

I see in the Summer 'cause I am often bare,

And rocks, glass and nails- give me a scare!

I have a partner, we look a like,

And we often can help when riding a bike.

We have our very own nails-ten to be exact,

And when you curl us under-we often crack!

Now comes the easy part-I wear socks and shoes,

And I often wear out when the day is through!

What Am I? # 16

A descriptive poem game where you guess what it is I am telling you about. In the comments section, you tell us where you figured it out at, if at all.

 

 

 
CLUES:

Here you are again,

Sitting here looking at me;

Do you have anything to gain?

And what is it you see?

Sometimes I look like a TV,

And other times I am just a screen full of words-

But whatever it is that you do see;

Just keep me away from the birds!

I have a board full of letters,

A tower that hangs around with us too;

And when you type I can make it all better;

And teach you what you should do!

I am wise and store things for you too,

I can crash and burn in the flash of an eye;

I can even get sick but not just any flu-

If you're not careful I can even die too!

I am electronic and can get upgraded,

I can come in colors if that's what you crave;

I often look like I am tan or silver plated;

And my hard drive can even have a "slave"!

If you haven't figured it out yet,

I don't know what else to tell you;

But I sure can bet-

You're using me right now too!

This is a poem which is also a game. Play along, what is the shame? In the comments section, let us know if you figured it out, if you didn't- there's no reason to pout!

 

 

 
CLUES:
I have wings, and I can fly,

I fly fast and way up high.

Before I flew I used to crawl,

An inch at a time, and that was all.

We often stop to smell the roses,

And you cannot see our noses!

Different sizes, colors and shapes-are how we are known,

Where the land is warm, we call that home.

We make a tent to change into flight,

And stay there for many a night.

We make no noise that you can hear,

And in the Winter-we disappear.

Nibbling on leaves is how we live,

And beauty is what we give.

One thing we don't understand,

Is the name you gave-it's too bland!

My friends and I have voted, and we say:

Change our name to "Beautifly" today!

Come on, play along! In the comments section, type in where you figured it out at. (Which line!) What have you got to loose?


CLUES: 


I've often been known to make people cry,

And the truth is- I don't know why.

I shed my skin, and have a strong smell-

Some people don't like me, I can just tell!

Usually I'm white, but sometimes not,

And my skin is often brown, unless I rot.

I am a vegetable, and I grow under ground,

I can spice up your life, without a sound!

Can You Figure it Out?

What I am doing here, is going to give you some clues. As I am giving them, try to figure out, what it is, I am describing to you. In the comments section, tell me in which line, you had it figured out!

 

 
CLUES:
I am silver and I fly,

People always spot me in the sky!

I watch football games,

And I have several names!

My engine noise is very distinct,

I have lights that often blink!

I can spell words and even a phrase,

But yet- I cannot go to outer space!

My name is a compound word,

And I am much bigger than a bird!

The first of my kind was made in Germany,

When I fly I am pointed at by many!

When they are done with me just so you know-

They tie me down, so I cannot go!

I live inside a hangar bigger than a football field,

And I also have a very big windshield!

My logo has gold trim and a dark blue,

And just so you know, this is your last clue!





What am I?

As requested, another What am I. Please put in the comments section, in which line you figured it out! THIS time, no picture for a clue! Enjoy! And yes, these will be a continued feature with me.
 
CLUES:

I have four legs on which I walk,

To communicate I do not talk!

When I use the bathroom I use a box,

I like to bat things, especially rocks!

I like to cuddle, and also purr,

I want your friendship that's for sure!

What am I?





I am a cat or kitten!

This is a guessing game poem. I give the clues, you figure out what it is I am describing. After you have read it, in the comments section, tell us what line you figured it out by, if you in fact did!


CLUES: 

I am a place where you learn,

A place where people can be taught-

An education you will earn...

An education is what is sought.

Children attend me, sometimes adults too,

I can be any color choice, but usually am two-

I have a mascot, someone to support you,

I have many kinds of teams too!

There are many grade levels for me,

Sometimes many floors within me too,

I often have desks and chalk boards to see-

And of course there is seating too!

Once you have completed the years with me,

You should have something to show for it!

You should have some sort of degree,

But if you don't I'd sure be having a fit!

Teachers teach within me, helping you learn-

There's nothing more to say here,

But remember the degree you can earn!

Just know there are many of me, far and near!




What am I?

A descriptive poem guessing game. I give you the clues, you try to figure it out, before the end. In the comments section, you tell us, when you had it figured out by. It's that easy, now come on, don't be shy, play along!

 

 

CLUES:


I am a very pretty white-

That is until someone gets me dirty!

I am cold and cannot bite;

When I first fall-I am pretty.

People take photos of me,

Sometimes I cause accidents though,

Not everyone likes me-

And I can come, and I can go!
 
I fall silently day and night,

Cause lakes to turn to ice-

Not everyone can drive on me right!

But I try to look nice!!

I can take your breath away,

Cause temperatures to drop-

Children often want me to stay;

And adults beg me to stop!

Figures can be built from me,

Forts can be too!

I am something you can never be-

And I can make an igloo!

If you haven't figured it out by now,

I don't know what else to say-

Other than I get pushed in a plow,

But I'll still come back the next day!!

*wink!*
