Riddles!
This topic is about short riddles, because not everyone likes to do the larger logical puzzles. If you do like those, then click here.
If you've guessed the riddle, you can immediately post another one yourself. Let's keep it going.
I will start with this riddle:
What is easy to get into, but hard to get out of?
I found a really really old book with riddles, let's see if you can solve them all
I will sing you a song of a warrior wee,
the powers of darkness before him flee.
He is very slender and very small,
but a match for the strongest man of all.
In his first great battle he sinks and dies,
and his body in dust and ashes lies.
But his glory remains by night and day,
to drive the cold and the gloom away.
Who/what is he?
@DarkWolf I read that book
@AmalieAnne
You did, I didn't expect anyone here to have read it? That will sadly spoil it quite a bit for you.
@DarkWolf well i enjoyed reading the book plus I still have some of the libary to read at mommys work I really like the moral of it as well
And whosoever, though weak and small,
Is striving to comfort and gladden all,
Though seeming to perish and die away,
Shall live in glory for aye and aye.
@AmalieAnne
That was the addition in the book underneath this riddle. yeah
@DarkWolf I finally remembered it all I liked that bit more than the riddle
Thanks for the clue
It is over the way of a duck.
It is under the way of a goose.
And right in the way of a railroad train,
and every day in use.
(* hint: We falsely deem our onward road,
by man things blockaded.
Which really are of our way,
by heavenily wisdom graded)
What/who is it?
@DarkWolf I wanna say trees but im not sure
@allnaturalNight50
It's not the answer I'm looking for.
Since the beginning of this riddle-topic over a year ago, I've encountered a lot of 'dirty-mind' riddles. I never really thought it was apropiate to post on 7cups. But since all these riddles have perfectly innocent answers.. I think we can try to do them now. Just.. try to stay away from sexual answers, for obvious reasons.
For the people who aren't ok with this.. I will give a spoiler before every question and put them below that in a smaller font.
Warning, dirty-mind riddle down below:
You play with me at night before going to sleep. You cant get caught fiddling with me at work. You only let a select few people touch me. What am I?
@DarkWolf maybe our fingers or hand?
@mikhaela
Nope, there's a better answer.
@DarkWolf our eyes?
@mikhaela
Nope.. you basically can play with your hair/fingers/eyes/etc at work without having too many issues/without getting a boss angry at you. So it's a little bit different than that.
@DarkWolf
What do you mean by " You cant get caught fiddling with me at work." ? Do you mean it'll land you in trouble if you get caught fiddling with it at work,or, that fiddling with it at work will not land you in any trouble ?
@blackSnowflake25
'fiddling' with it at work.. can make your boss annoyed/angry at you.
@DarkWolf
Oh okay

I start with a v and every woman has one. Women can even use me to get whatever they want. What am I?
