Guest Posted May 15, 2009 Report Share Posted May 15, 2009 Ok, I had to give this type of riddle a shot. Maybe Lotus inspired me. It's easy, I think, but I have been known to be mistaken. To determine the answer, here's what you do; take two words, making one from the two The first can be a greeting in a hall, and would not describe a valley at all! The second you will know I'm sure, What is a rabbit compared to a boar? Now combine your clues, and keep your mind limber, And you'll have a tool to help you remember.

0 Guest Posted May 16, 2009 Report Share Posted May 16, 2009 YES! You are a pro. What are these riddles called again? I don't know. I never came up with a word for it. I usually just call them "two part" riddles, But usually I let the solver figure that out for themselves. But, I ALWAYS separate parts with stanzas, so that it's more obvious the separation. Always, 1. a part 2. another part 3. description. I just sort of started doing these when I thought of....hmmm, what was it....like pomp and circumstance, or something like that.

0 Guest Posted May 16, 2009 Report Share Posted May 16, 2009 Lol, that's nothing. There's a drycleaner's van that drives by my apartment every thursday playing tacky accordian music. Horrible!!! What is wrong with people? (just today, I spotted the old "ice cream truck station." And there were actual legitimate ice cream trucks, and then.....the van). Who trusts an ice cream van? (especially that plays christmas music). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
