0 Guest Posted April 15, 2009 Report Share Posted April 15, 2009 Just for fun, and fun it was! I liked this riddle, just... because? Easy enough, but masterfully and mirthfully done yet again. This one was satisfyingly entertaining. (pardon my gratuitous verboseness.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Shakeepuddn Posted April 15, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2009 "Did the "Door" line have a reference, or was it just poetic license to make the rhyme?" Please! I'm taken aback! A door is an opening through which things pass. It can be anywhere . . . right, left, below or ABOVE. All lines, words, metaphors are with rhyme and reason.

0 Guest Posted April 15, 2009 Report Share Posted April 15, 2009 (edited) But most of what we're talking about are fixed and don't open or close... But I'm just being picky 'cause I'm intimidated by your awesome riddles (and sad that the one I actually knew was already answered by the time I saw it!) And being even pickier, that's a doorway... a door can be opened or closed! Edited April 15, 2009 by Dio da Goat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
