RIDDLES FROM THE FORUMS:
Travel I without abate,
Over red hill past pearly gates,
Through darkened catacombs below,
And with haste back I go.
Were I gone you'd surely miss
each unnoticed stolen kiss.
--Breath
____________
A legend once was,
A new life begun.
From an ember that fell.
From the heart of the sun.
--The Phoenix
_____________
Greater in value than the gems of the earth,
A man may posses it without knowing its worth.
Stronger than steel or brittle as glass,
This is a thing that you hope will long last,
It can bring enemies together, and keep friends apart
For many strong emotions, this is a good start.
--Honour
_____________
Behold, the thing both craved and abhorred.
It stretches forever, within all is stored.
Lighter than feathers and clearer than glass,
When cut into two the wounds quickly heal,
simply stick them together and to one they'll congeal.
What am I?
--Space
____________
It can't be bought
It can be won
It is much sought
Sometimes a con
And here is how the real you tell
It has a flame no cold can quell
Worth more than pearls and gems and wealth
It's real when you forget yourself.
--Love
____________
Clouded by age
While childhood loses
Stage by stage
The solitary thing
Which binds
All loose ends of man's feeble wisdom
And makes to sing
Despair and grief
my name...is...
--Belief
____________
I speak every language
Without making a sound.
I stand here before you
Without touching the ground.
There are those that love me,
And those that fear me.
There are those that loathe me,
If they can't see clearly...
It is I who mark your flaws so delicately.
It is I who enrapture you still.
It is I whom you wish was perfect.
It is not I who eventually will,
You are the one who must change.
What am I?
--Reflection
___________
A man without eyes,
sees plums on a tree.
He takes no plums, he leaves no plums.
How can this be?
--The man had one eye, the tree had two plums, the man takes one plum.
_______________
I am harder than stone,
I am sharper than bone,
You may possess me,
There is nothing I own.
--A Diamond
______________
I live everywhere and control your world
You feel me all the time, but see me none of the time
I control your spinning existence
And without me time for you would stop
Without me tomorrow would be today
And today would be yesterday.
--Gravity
On going...........
