0 plainglazed Posted May 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 14, 2009 Dont know the protocall here but here's an editted version of the above which was way too wordy and poorly written. Sorry if this offends. Leaves are turning but no where they blow. Tho 'neath the tree this takes me so Many places both far and wide. It's up to you. You can decide Where to go and what to discern From me; it's endless what you can learn. But if it's games you're prepared to play, Not the game of life but instead you might say, "Around again to the first crossing you come" May make this riddle a lot easier for some. Maybe only marginally better but needed to do.... Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 plainglazed Posted May 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 14, 2009 oh so close! This riddle kinda has two parts both pointing to the same one word answer. The top part is more for you right-brainers; use your imagination. The last four lines should be easier for left-brainers; with a little POW thrown in there.

0 plainglazed Posted May 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 14, 2009 Do you mean I should be more specific? A certain type..or one in particular? No, not a certain type or title.

Question
plainglazed
Leaves are falling with no where to go
Tho 'neath the tree you take me so
Many places both far and wide
It's up to you, only you can decide
To take it or leave it as you like
For some the balance is hard to strike
Now where to go and what to learn
From me it's endless what one can discern
But if it is games you are prepared to play
Not the game of life but instead you might say
Around again to the first crossing you come
May make this riddle a lot easier for some.
