0 Guest Posted March 10, 2009 Report Share Posted March 10, 2009 All correct. Were mine easy to guess? Actually, I almost put something different for 1 & 3. I realized what they were at the last minute. They do look a little familiar, though. I love wordplay riddles, even if I can't solve them. Keep it up!

0 rookie1ja Posted March 10, 2009 Report Share Posted March 10, 2009 Welcome to the Den, The monkey of the jungle. Oldies but goodies - I like them. However, these riddles are already part of this site: the first the second the third - nice variation of classic (there are a few others as well) the fourth Reading "Important: READ BEFORE POSTING" (the link is at the top as well) might help you to do a quick search before you post a puzzle that you have not created. Enjoy the Den Thread open since the third one is new on this site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Question
Guest
Try to guess these 4 riddles.
1. What is it that after you take away the whole, some still remains?
2. Say my name and I disappear. What am I?
3. Every dawn begins with me
At dusk I'll be the first you see
And daybreak couldn't come without
What midday centers all about
Daises grow from me, I'm told
And when I come, I end all cold
But in the sun I won't be found
Yet still, each day I'll be around
4. Forward I'm heavy, but backwards I'm not. What am I?
