Sometimes I Enter With a Gong
I’m a word, six letters long,
I sometimes enter with a gong.
All in order from A to Z,
I start with the letter B.
What is the word?
Begins
It has six letters, when a meditation begins they sound the gong, and the letters are in alphabetical order.
Around the House Without Touching It
What goes around and in the house, but never touches the house?
The sun.
Garlic or Spice
Before any changes I’m a garlic or spice. My first is altered and I’m a hand-warming device. My second is changed and I’m trees in full bloom. The next letter change makes a deathly old tomb. Change the fourth to make a fruit of the vine. Change the last for a chart plotted with lines. What was I? What did I become? What did I turn out to be?
clove
glove
grove
grave
grape

Sometimes I’m a Sphere
Sometimes I’m a sphere,
Sometimes I’m a banana,
And sometimes I’m not there at all.
What am I?
The moon. A full moon is a sphere, a crescent moon looks like a banana, and sometimes the moon is not visible at all.
I Have Wings But Cannot Fly
I have wings but cannot fly.
I can do the twist but can’t move around.
People enjoy relaxing in my company.
What am I?
A ceiling fan.
I Can Be Quick, And Then I’m Deadly
I can be quick and then I’m deadly,
I am a rock, shell and bone medley.
If I was made into a man, I’d make people dream,
I gather in millions by ocean, sea and stream.
Sand. Quicksand is deadly (at least in movies). Sand is made up of rocks, shells and bones. The sandman visits you when you dream (again, according to legend, I’ve never seen him…) and there is plenty of sand in the oceans, seas and streams.
Have No Face
I turn my head and you may go where you want.
I turn it again, you will stay till you rot.
I have no face, but I live or die,
By my crooked teeth.
What am I?
A key
