Can’t Be Touched, Can Be Felt
It can’t be touched, but can be felt.
It can’t be opened, but can be gone into.
Those who seek it always find it under something,
yet it moves from place to place.
Shade. You can’t touch shade, but you can feel its coolness. You can’t open shade but you can go into it. If you’re looking for shade it always has to be underneath something to block the light and shade moves as the light does.

None There’ll Be
There is a word of letters three,
Add one letter to it and none there’ll be.
What is the word?
One. Add an ‘n’ to get none.
Lighter Than a Feather
I’m lighter than a feather but even the world’s strongest man can’t hold me for more than a few minutes. What am I?
Breath. Air is light, but even Stig Severinsen, the world record holder can only hold his breath for 22 minutes. The world’s strongest man can’t beat that, but you can have the pleasure of telling him to his face.
Memory I Have But I Have No Mind
Mouth-less but I will tell you a name that is not mine,
I will show you the years I have seen but I have no eyes,
Memory I have but I have no mind.
What am I?
A gravestone. The stone bears the name of the deceased and the memories and recollections of their life are represented by the grave site.
Take Away All My Letters
Take away my first letter,
Take away my second letter,
Take away all my letters,
and I remain the same.
What am I?
A mail carrier. Even when there aren’t any letters left to deliver, they’re job is still the mail carrier.
