If I were to bleed from a wound or two,
You’d note, in amazement, my blood is blue.
I’m found as a fossil in ancient stone,
Yet, living today, I’m almost a clone.
My eyes will adjust a great many fold,
To see, by the moonlight, who I can hold.
If I could tell my mate, I would say it is true,
These wonderful eyes are only for you.
I’m one of the last to die from pollution,
A living exception to evolution.

A Tom Swifty is a play on words. Tom speaks, and the way he is said to speak has two meanings. Both meanings could be true.

e.g., “I love hot dogs,” Tom said frankly.
The “frank” describes how he spoke and relates to the hot dog! [Frankfurter!]

The Tom Swifty can also use a phrase or homophone.
e.g., “You didn’t order enough carpet”, said Tom with a cold stare.
“Cold stare” expresses his annoyance and suggests uncarpeted stairs!

Each of the clues make up a type of flower, for example “small container + to allow” would be “vial + let”, or “violet.”

Can you figure out these five?

1. an implement + flesh around mouth
2. foppish + a large carnivorous wildcat
3. to wed + a soft yellow element
4. a false statement + be deficient in
5. indicates an alternative + child

On six feet, I am a noxious drink,
Of whose effects you shudder to think.
Change only my second foot, and then
You convert me into a horrible den
Where the culprit, who gave the noxious drink,
Awaits the fate of which you shudder to think.
