• Riddle #9, What Am I?

Can you riddle me this?
Look at me! Red, round and cheesy,
Not fancy, but I am just plain old “easy!”
Once a stranger for the procrastinator,
Now I am that talking congratulator.
I sit around a lot, but I am no slob.
I am the hit, of every completed job.
Once a novice for the “bottom line,”
Now I’m just the recorder [...]

• Riddle #8, What Am I?

Riddle Me This…What Am I?
Adam, God made out of dust,
But thought it best to make me first,
So I was made before now,
To answer God’s most holy plan,
A living being I became,
And Adam gave to me my name,
I from his presence then withdrew,
And more of Adam I never knew.
I did my Maker’s law obey,
Nor never went [...]

• Riddle #7, What Am I?

Riddle me this, What am I?

Life has started all over for me–
The young years of happiness
Have come again in a sweeter form
Than a mother could ever guess;
The love and devotion I gave my child
I thought I could give no other,
But life held a lovely surprise for me–
When I became a [...]

• Riddle #6, What Am I?

 
Riddle Me This! What Am I?
Here I sit day and night,
When better made, I sit secure and tight.
Woe to others, if I leak.
I do not date, but I go out once a week.
I am not a hobby, but I collect most every day.
For removing stuff, I am here to stay.
I am the object of [...]

• Riddle #5, What Am I?

 
Riddle Me This! What Am I?
I am a high flyer,
But I get knocked around.
I leave and return on demand,
Many close calls, you understand.
You might say, I am yellow,
And I am…a well rounded fellow.
When new, I am fuzzy,
But when old, they say…”fuzzy, was he?”
All ages play with me,
And I can be seen on national T.V.
I am [...]

• Riddle #4, What Am I?

Riddle Me This, What am I?
I am not really what I appear…
Though my purpose is to bring good cheer.
Sometimes my heart is on my sleeve,
To help children to believe.
My main role is for…distraction,
But usually I am…the attraction.
Sometimes I’m sad, sometimes I’m glad.
But my face is never painted plaid.
You might [...]

• Riddle #3, What Am I?

Riddle Me This…What Am I?
Eager and reluctant lips, I’ve seen.
A spectator to the amorous, I’ve been.
I am green with envy, and in fashion,
With a quick peck, I could cause passion.
I have seasonal hang-ups, laying in wait,
For the timid, I improve their gait.
They say, “Life is a bowl of cherries.”
I am the [...]

• Riddle #2, What Am I?

I am many feathers, color and style,
Jokes about me make children smile.
I am special, to be sure,
For annual events, I must cure.
When I am eaten, I am, all bone…
Without family and friends, I am alone.
For children to remember, I am the symbol…
To forget is most [...]

• Riddle #1, What Am I?

You might say that I am “high strung,”
But I am more accurate with the tongue.
I work well under pressure,
And when I do, it’s a pleasure.
When I am new, I have lots of “bounce.”
When I am old, not an “ounce.”
When I’m “on,” I get a “hit,”
When I’m [...]

• A Gospel Honey Pot

 
 
In going through some old papers, I found a little poem that I wrote,
I thought I would share it with you here.

Gospel Honey Pot
by Barney Kinard
If the Gospel were a pot of honey,
We would spread it around.
Offering it to all without money,
Free for all in every town!
If the Gospel were a pot of [...]
