Puzzles and Poetry

A puzzle is like poetry.

It causes us to reflect

And see a thing quite differently.

Is it object or object?



Some fit in place so easily.

"Have we done this before?"

Some can't be solved without commissary.

Pondering is a chore.



Some are full of challenge,

designed for the elite;

A contest for the higher minds

where my Mensa friends compete.



Some are easy, seek and find;

much like tic-tac-toe.

If you don't solve it with an X

perhaps you play the O.
