Riddles

August 01, 2019

These are riddles I have written, some might be easy, others could be quite difficult. Please try to solve them before inspecting for the answer.

#1

Through air I am shaped, by hands and breath
Often present in celebration or after death
Like a tide I lap at the shores of your mind
But to truly see me, you must be blind

#2

I met a strange creature in a far off land
Who always covered their face with their hands
Every so often they’d get up and yell
But just what they said, I never could tell

What are they?

#3

Rich people have lots of it
Everyone else wishes they had more of it
But if you in it right now, you'd die

#4

Wingless it soars
Soundless it falls

Heavier than a mountain
Lighter than a rock

Bigger than a city
Smaller than a sock

#5

Held up by a column, a modest home
Two windows, a door, and a dome
Within its attic a treasure is held
A portal to another world

#6

Born from water, dry as stone
Place where all the mountains roam
Sing and whistle, howl and roar
What seemed to be, is no more
