Trees on my back,
Nails in my ribs,
Feet I do lack.
What am I?
A boat.
If You Break Me
If you break me
I do not stop working,
If you touch me
I may be snared,
If you lose me
Nothing will matter.
What am I?
Hope.
A Red Drum
A red drum which sounds
Without being touched,
And grows silent,
When it is touched.
What is it?
Your heart.

Water
Full Of Lines

How Many Letters In the Alphabet
How many letters are there in the alphabet?
Hint: Not 26
11. The phrase “the alphabet” has 11 letters.
The Long River
How many times does the letter S appear in the name of the longest river in the world?
Zero. The Nile is the longest river in the world. Some claim the Amazon as the longest, but that too has no “S”es (that looks weird but I don’t know how else to write the plural of “s”). The Mississippi is the 4th largest river in the world according to a href=”https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_rivers_by_length”>Wikipedia.
