Array ( [sid] => 184090 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Come Out and Play [time] => 2017-04-15 18:31:58 [hometext] => Rhymes that offer in their middle; Hints to solve a little riddle; Offered up to make you grin; Ready? Set? OK! Begin! [bodytext] => A few silly riddles may brighten your day;
So come sit beside me and conjure away!
The secrets are told in rhyme here below;
(Fill in the blanks if you like as you go.)
The answers are found at the end dontcha know!

I can be felt, but alas, never heard;
I can be broken with only a word;
I can’t be touched or seen when I’m there;
Just call me golden, because I’m so rare.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _

Im sure to be found in everyone’s home;
Still I am totally useless alone;
Although Ive no life, yet I can die;
And I charge for my service, now, what am I?

_ _ _ _ _ _ _

I can be broken without being touched;
Im useless unless you trust that you must;
To some Im a lock without any key;
Beware those who offer me up carelessly!

_ _ _ _ _ _ _

I cannot see you, and I am mute;
Yet I will always tell you the truth.
Forbidden am I all falsehoods to grace;
Honestys written all over my face.

_ _ _ _ _ _

Alas, those who make me never will try me;
Ill not be used by those who will buy me;
They that will use me never will know;
Yet Ill take them nowhere, wherever they go.

_ _ _ _ _ _

Those who have me, want to share me;
Those who give me, do so rarely.
Im yours but for one caveat;
Share me and you have me not.

_ _ _ _ _ _

I have traveled everywhere;
I am welcomed far and near;
Yet in my corner I remain;
Never to go forth again.

_ _ _ _ _

Poor folks have it; wealthy need it.
And you’ll die if you should eat it.
Multiply it endlessly;
Still it remains what used to be.

_ _ _ _ _ _ _

This was glorious as usual Jaye!
I know a talent scout that says only the memorable can make it.
I was building a computer the other day and I was at a tedious spot in the assembly and out of nowhere I thought about your poems of cars, computers, and the like. I don/'/t even remember my own writes. I think that says it all!!!!!!!!!!
