A Poem by Honey-Bee

I told a funny riddle
Just like an exam
I played it like a fiddle
And then I'd say thank you ma'am
The answers came from all sides
As each one tried and tried
As for the closest answer
 I tried hard to decide
My riddle got the best of me
It got the best of you
No one got the answer
Not even close, Not even a few.
They probed me for the answer 
and then tried to cut my hair
I said,  I am not Samson 
Please take your scissors and ware
I woke up one morning
To find my long locks gone
I would not go out of the house
I stayed in to sing a lamenting song.

Maybe it is my poetic mind, maybe it is a guess I my part but I do believe I get this piece.

But the beauty of poetry is sometimes in the not knowing so I will leave it with this;

Kudos and keep it up.
