Mother From a Family of Eight
This mother comes from a family of eight,
Supports her children in spite of their weight,
Turns around without being called,
Has held you since the time you crawled.
Who is she?
“Mother” Earth. The family of eight are the eight planets, all of the world’s population is quite a load, the earth is always spinning (or turning around) and unless you’re an alien, you’ve been on earth your whole life.
Leaves That Don’t Fall
I have wood but no bark,
And leaves that don’t fall,
I am made up of branches,
and come in sizes of all.
I am completely devoured many times,
over and over by a worm of a kind.
If you want to know the answer of mine,
look for the secret that I’ve stored inside.
What am I?
A library or bookstore.
What I Embrace I Destroy
My first two letters say my name.
My last letter asks a question.
What I embrace I destroy.
What am I?
Ivy. IV is pronounced ivy, y is pronounced why and fast growing ivy can smother and kill trees, shrubs and grass.
In A Dark Room with a Rope and a Pencil
Imagine you are in a dark room with a locked door. All you have with you is a rope and a pencil. You can hear the rain outside, but there
are no windows. How do you get out?
Stop imagining.
Bricks to Finish a Building
How many bricks does it take to finish a brick building?
One (the last one is the only one that can finish the building).
Sits in the Corner
I sit in a corner and travel around the world. What am I?
A stamp.
This is nearly a duplicate of Lives in the Corner.
