Riddle Me This! the answer is in the comments!



I haven't left a riddle for anyone to solve in a while.  I hope I found a challenging one this time! If I get no correct answers by tonight, I'll start leaving clues.  Good luck!



MIRROR

Mirror, mirror in my hand,
Your face all burned with light;
You dance in circles while you sing.
A jewel holds you tight.

What am I?




Clue #1:  Matt was closest to the answer with his first guess.


Clue #2: What things have a mirrored surface?


Clue #3: What's another word for "dancing in circles"?

Riddle Me This







Do you know why I'm doing a riddle tonight?  Because I can't think of a darn interesting thing to talk about!  So here it is:

MENACE

A menace, I creep
Silent and slow,
Obscuring your vision
And things that you know.

My blanket enfolds you,
But won't keep you warm.
You glimpse things familiar,
But I change their form.

By the sounds of the horn,
Know that danger is near;
By night or bright day,
It warns you to steer clear.

What am I?

psst!  I have a friend who blogs here... her name is Vodka mom. It's also the name of her blog.  Her blog is one of the funniest I've ever read! Anyway, she was nominated for the Top 50 Mommy Bloggers.  It would be really cool if you could check her out, read some of her stuff and go over to Babble and vote for her!  Last time I checked she was ranked #19!  Simply click here to go to the site.  Check out her blog!  You won't be sorry!!

Riddle Me This! ** and I've added a few hints!



OK, it's been a while since I did a riddle.  Can you tell I save these for when I can't think of anything clever to say?  So, here is a riddle for y'all (I'm practicing for when I move South and become a Suthun Belle) .  Good luck!  If no one guesses correctly by the time I get home from work on Tuesday, I'll add hints.  I've never had to do that because y'all are really smart!

THINK TO HEAR

You'd think to hear about me,
That I never would be slow, 
Or that something would be shattered,
But it generally isn't so.
Do nuts show up?  Yes they do!
Perhaps serially.
Some will even scramble to
Raise a toast to me!


What am I?

Clue #1 This riddle contains some very painful puns.
Clue #2 What is a word for something that isn't slow?
Clue #3 What is a word that means shatter?

Riddle Me This

Blue box, locked box,
Its mouth open wide
Words are painted on it,
The letters are inside.

Riddle Me This and a clue was added to comments!




I thought I'd get a post ready in case I don't get home tonight or tomorrow.   Here's another riddle.  I'll add a hint in the comments if no one figures it out by the time I can get online again.  As soon as someone guesses correctly, I'll let you know!!!  (hahaha  I forgot the answer to this one!  I have to think about it for a bit!)




Anger, Cowardice and envy
Appear to be just base emotions.
But overhead they guide your feet
And stipulate your forward motions.

Riddle Me This




This is something I've been thinking of doing for some now.  But with John being in the hospital, then his recovery at home and finally with my computer crashing, I didn't want to start it.  But all is well now (knock wood!) and I can do this!

I wanted to do a weekly blog post with a riddle y'all can try to solve.  Some are easy, others more difficult.  I can even post a hint or 2 in the comment section if y'all are having trouble finding the answer. 


So I figured out to make a button and I added a link on my sidebar.  I'll figure out who to finish it up tonight.

When air is still, and waters calm,
You will find me every place.
But come the wind or falling rain,
I go and hide without a trace.


You no doubt hate the tiny gifts
That I bestow each time I feed.
But as I give I also take
For you contain the gift I need.
