All In White, A Fossil

All in white, a fossil,
fresh snow, a loan, the sky,
But just what am I?

A bride (something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue).

Alphonso and Sadie

Alphonso and his sister Sadie are entering the airport to meet their mother when Sadie gasps in surprise and says to her brother, “You see that man in the crowd over there?”

Alphonso replies, “It’s Bernie. I don’t believe it. Let’s go introduce ourselves.”

Neither of them had ever met Bernie before. They’d never seen a picture or painting of him, nor was he a famous celebrity.

How was this possible?

Alphonso was born as a twin, but he was separated from his twin brother at birth. Bernie is Alphonso’s identical twin, which is how Sadie was able to recognize him in the crowd.

This is kind of a cheat, because there are probably other possible explanations. But we can’t have everything :)

Dancing All The Time

Moving to and fro,
Dancing all the time.
Only to be moved by others
To allow them to pass by.

What am I?

A door.

Many and One

We are many and one,
We wave and we drum,
We will cover a stare,
With you everywhere.

What are we?

Hands.

Shuns the Light of Day

What must be in the oven yet can not be baked?
Grows in the heat yet shuns the light of day?
What sinks in water but rises with air?
Looks like skin but is fine as hair?

Yeast.

The more you take, the more you leave behind.

Footsteps or footprints.

At The Sound Of Me, Men May Dream

At the sound of me, men may dream
Or stamp their feet
At the sound of me, women may laugh
Or sometimes weep

Music.

Gain and Lose the Most

Some are quick to take it.
Others must be coaxed.
Those who choose to take it
gain and lose the most.

Risk.

Full Of Lines

I’m full of lines and my job is to lie, yet I’m revered by many. What am I?

An actor. They memorize lines and lie about who they are, yet well-known actors are mobbed by fans whenever they’re seen in public.
