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 cant be touched or seen when Im there;
Just call me golden, because Im so rare.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
Im sure to be found in everyones 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 youll die if you should eat it.
Multiply it endlessly;
Still it remains what used to be.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
Silence; A Battery; A Promise; A Mirror; A Coffin; A Secret; A Stamp; Nothing

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!!!!!!!!!!
