My first is in CHEERFUL but not found in SAD.

My second's in MIFFED but is never in MAD.
My third is in VICARAGE, not in a MANSE

My fifth is in ORANGE and also in GREEN
My sixth is in POLISH but nowhere in SHEEN
My seventh's in BOTTLE but not in a GLASS
My eighth is in ATOMS but not in a MASS

My tenth's served for BREAKFAST but never for LUNCH
My eleventh's in DENTURES and also in TEETH
My twelfth is in GARLAND and also in WREATH
My thirteenth's in OMEN and also in FEAR
My fourteenth's in TYNE and is also in WEAR
My last is in CONSONANT never in VOWEL
If you can't guess this main line, just throw in the towel.
My first's in OUTRAGEOUS but not found in STAID
My second's prolific in MILKING and MAID
My third hides in BRACKEN but stays out of GORSE
My fourth's in the ALPHABET somewhere, of course!
My fifth's in A MINUTE but not in AN HOUR
My sixth is in BLOOM and is also in FLOWER
My seventh's in ARKEN but but missing from SWALE
My eighth's not in HILL but can be seen in DALE
My first half is wealthy, my second's a hill
On second thoughts:
My first half is wealthy, my second's a rise
And the gardens thereat are a sight for sore eyes.
I think it's Richmond - is that right?
My first can be WRITTEN but cannot be DRAWN
My second's in SUNSET but never at DAWN
My third is in PIRATE but not JOHNNY DEPP
My fourth's in a MAINSAIL but not in a STEP
My fith is in HAMMER but not on the NAIL

My eighth, of course, is in the UNDERGROUND
My ninth's nicely ROUNDED not thin like a STICK
