At Night They Come
At night they come without being fetched. By day they are lost without being stolen. What are they?
The stars.
Calm and Cool Among Tumult and Fury
I remain calm and cool among tumult and fury,
I hide treasures and creatures you could hardly fathom,
I will crush those I welcome in deeply,
I am dark yet beautiful.
What am I?
Underwater in the deep ocean. Even when storms brew, the water deep below the surface is calm and cool. Thousands of treasures have been lost in sunken ships, and amazing creatures live at deep depths of the ocean. At extreme depths, the pressure is crushing. It is extremely dark deep in the ocean, yet also beautiful.
Up A Hill
Up a hill,
Down a hill,
Over them I may roam,
But after all my walking,
There’s no place like my own.
Your home.
Can Only Be Given, Not Taken Or Bought
It may only be given,
Not taken or bought,
What the sinner desires,
But the saint does not.
Forgiveness.
I Am Two-faced, But Bear One Head
I am two-faced, but bear one head.
Men spill their blood for me.
I have no legs but travel widely.
I make kings immortal.
I am potent when shared,
Yet lust for my power keeps me locked away.
What am I?
Money (coins specifically). Coins have two faces, heads and tails. People fight for money, and money travels far and wide. Kings live on when they’re depticted on a coin. Sharing money with others is a meaningful experience yet many people keep their money locked up.
People Eat Me
I am a word of 5 letters and people eat me. If you remove the first letter I become a form of energy. Remove the first two and I’m needed to live. Scramble the last 3 and you can drink me. What am I?
wheat
heat
eat
tea
No Ears and More Than One Eye
I have no ears, but more than one eye,
Cut me in half, I won’t cry,
Leave me alone and I will die.
What am I?
A potato. The roots growing out of a potato are called eyes, when you cut a potato in half it doesn’t produce any moisture and if you leave a poor potato to its own devices, it will die.
Celebrate, Hide Their Shame or Commit Crime
Some use me to celebrate,
Others use me to hide their shame,
Others use me to commit crime.
What am I?
Alcohol. People have a drink to celebrate, but also drink to hide their shame. Lastly, drunk driving is a crime.
A mask is also a valid answer. They can be used to celebrate Halloween or at dress-up parties, a mask can hide your shame and masks are used by thieves.
Update: This one has more valid answers than I thought. Money, drugs and night also work.
