Harvest Though No Grain
I harvest you, though you’ve no grain,
I reap you in the wind and rain,
You bleed not but your soft meat
And nectar makes a sweetest treat.
What am I?
A clam or oyster. You harvest clams or oysters on the beach or go diving, and the beach is often windy and rainy. Neither bleeds but are known for having, soft, slimy meat, and people often drink the “clam nectar” or “oyster juice”.

Commonly Forgotten And Sometimes Rotten
I am always with you
But commonly forgotten.
You use me constantly,
And can sometimes be rotten.
What am I?
Air.
Imprisoned In Wood and Never Released
I am taken from a mine and shut up in a wooden case from which I am never released. Yet I am used by almost everybody. What am I?
Pencil lead. While modern pencils don’t contain lead, that’s still what we call the graphite compound. When real lead was used in pencils it was mined and nearly everyone has used a pencil at some point in their life.
I Am Pronounced As One Letter But Written As Three
I am pronounced as one letter but written as three,
There are two of me, I am single, I am double,
I can be blue, brown, black or green.
I can be read from right to left or left to right and am still the same.
What am I?
Eye.
Two in a Corner
Two in a corner,
One in a room,
Zero in a house, but one in a shelter.
What am I?
The letter “r”.
What Holds Two People Together?
What holds two people together but touches only one?
A wedding ring.
A Harvest Sown and Reaped
A harvest sown and reaped on the same day
In an unplowed field,
Which increases without growing,
Remains whole though it is eaten
Within and without,
Is useless and yet
The staple of nations.
A war.
