I WROTE THESE. CAN YOU PLEASE TELL ME IF THEY ARE TOO OBSCURE OR TOO OBVIOUS. (ANSWER KEY AT THE BOTTOM)
1)
first and last seen when awake
most are real some are fake
none walk some run
we all have one
someone else can easily break
2)
though colorless some are white
and self gaining though most might
be sinfully conceived
the best are believed
with none left actually right
3) (my favorite)
parts of them turn with no wheels
their covers when closed conceals
all but the back
where it may pack
things none but the eye reveals
4)
the narrow inlet tightly grips
responding quick to kissing lips
if worked enough
the tummy will puff
making a child happy to the tips
5) (puzzle more than riddle)
if what goes in when this comes out
and that always follows this about
and how is this
try not to miss
these clues construed with doubt
where is what when that will allow
by going out and following how
i ask you then
if this isn't in
which location is where now

Originally posted by nihilismorYou shouldn't give the obsessive-compulsives a way out by providing the solutions with the riddles. Rather, make them toil for days and days before maybe a clue is given. Only after interest seems to be waning should you provide the answer, all the while girding your proverbial loins for the massive onslaught of objections.
No replys? Were they really that mediocre?
Originally posted by nihilismori got nose and balloon... lies is really nice, and i like the book riddle (though i'm not sure i get the end of it ..."where it may pack things none but the eye reveals"😉. i agree with green paladin though - might have been good not to give the answers right away, let us take a stab at them to see if they are enjoyed or too easy
