plainglazed 67 Posted July 30, 2009 Report Share Posted July 30, 2009 Meant just for good fun, like one from before. Solve the five below, and then there is more. Smaller in a sense, yet off the charts I can be. Most common of man or deserted possibly. Sometimes they'll listen, so get it off you should. From me you would surely escape if you could. Since no belly-aching's allowed, and he also cant fight. We're hard to resist because the prices so right. Found if taken over a period of time. Make opinions count, like how 'bout this rhyme? Similar to Eve just is not so poetic. Served with haste, short and phonetic. To begin the next step, a key you will need. Entitling you to, the final answer indeed.

0 plainglazed 67 Posted July 30, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 30, 2009 Hey DN, thanks for droppin' in. None of these are what I have in mind. I must say tho, your answer for the second word fits at least as good as mine. I hate it when that happens. Sorry about that. It's pretty much impossible to make a couplet that eliminates all but the one intended answer. Please keep at it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Think we are narrowing it down on the second one. At least I hope so. Once again this fits just fine but it wont help you out with the final answer. So for the second time now I must apologize for the vagueness of this one. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Dont know if you've read the whole thread but have twice apologized for the second couplet's lack of a singular answer. Consider this the third. Sorry. Heck, I have enough trouble limiting it to singular answers when I write 20 line riddles! Ok, we've got 1. island (pretty much) 4. rate 5.

Thanks for summarizing, plasmid. And you're right we are down to two ...still I'm afraid. As for the four letteredness, well, can I say it could be? The third one may or may not break that trend. And as for the singularity difficulties, you know I usually have to cheat and resort to POWs or some other kind of gimmick as in this case to qualify mine. Blast? And a good morn' afternoon wish for you, Wilson. Another great, well thought out, and understandable guess. And yet not it. Sorry but thanks. Ok, slept on it last night: wooden hill = stairs? so climb the wooden hill = upstairs to bed? Love it. Edited July 31, 2009 by plainglazed Quote Link to post Share on other sites
