A Riddle for David Houston by wbiro at All poetry

I am lost, no more riddles
from Dave Houston, I am snoozin'
from my pondering, I've gone a'wandering
I am not home.

I ran away with sister Thay,
and sister Poly and sister Mel;
My daddy threw lightening bolts
he was so mad... I was a shyster
when I disappeared with Dave's inspiration
and left this easy riddle here
for such a seasoned riddle meister-

who, who, who am I?

In collaboration with SwtAsWine

Author notes

Dave is missing something... or someone! Now Dave used to write riddle poems like this one, but hasn't been lately... and I think it is because of what he has lost above...

If you think you have the answer, IM me...

Glad you enjoyed it, Oh Man of Honor! (or is that the 'roastee'? lol) SwtAsWine and I were IM'ing (as AP father/daughters should!) and the conversation went from one of her poems to your comment to the riddles of yours she used to enjoy... (women have brains after all! Surprise!) (now I'm REALLY going to get it from my AP family! lol) Good luck with the book(s), may they make the New York Time's Best Seller List!

Well, now I don't know what to think, except I think I do know the answer, and although she is responsible, it still is mostly me in having taken a break (how is that for mysterious pleasure?). I have been editing, tweaking, and refining them and hoping to have two books published. I really love you guys for taking the time and effort here in writing this great little riddle! I am off to i.m. you with the answer soon! Ahaaaaa, best wishes, and with regards too, David

glad you enjoyed my riddle poem, Lady anairO... and here is a riddle you may be able to easily answer: now if VampiressAngel is your AP grandma, and she is my AP daughter, what does that make us, I wonder?

...no idea! But then again, I've always been horrible at riddles. But, I'll think about it.

Very thought-provoking Dad & Sis!

Hmmm.....
A poetic riddle, how interesting. I must ponder this awhile before even possibly answering. Until then know you both have written a very intriguing piece that stimulates the minds detective skills not to mention curiousity.
