0 Shakeepuddn Posted April 18, 2009 Report Share Posted April 18, 2009 This is an outstanding riddle! Five gold medals, even if my answer is wrong (I don't think so)! Honeybee (Dance and "harpoon" give it away for me as I just did a riddle on waggle dance about two months ago). No, this is not too simple. It is exceptional and perfect as is. Well done.

Question
plasmid
A blustery wind blows over the bay
I hoist up my sails, I'm off on my way
Hoping to find, for the sake of my bands
A village to pillage in neighboring lands
I barge in the house
I drink all their wine
(Why, they hardly even seem like they mind!)
When business is done, I bolt out the door
Picking up more than I'm bargaining for
In port once again, my comrades all glance
And they all take note of my singing and dance
We're off to win GOLD!
We're leaving the bay
Harpooning whoever might stand in our way!
(I thought we could all use an easy one after that stumper from Shakee. It was an awesome riddle, but it still made my brain short out.)
