Liquid In Nature
I am liquid in nature,
But don’t bend me to far,
For then I may break
And give you a scar.
What am I?
Glass. Technically, glass is an amorphous solid, but that doesn’t have the same ring to it.
Little Miss Eticote
Little Miss Eticote
In her white petticoat
And her red nose
The longer she stands
The shorter she grows
A candle.
If I’m Ever Gone, Beware
Sometimes you’ll find me hard and cold,
Other times I’m hard to hold,
Always present in the air,
If I’m ever gone, beware.
What am I?
Water. As ice I’m hard and cold, as water vapor I’m hard to hold and I’m always present in the air as humidity (aka water vapor). If the earth ever runs out of water, we’re toast.
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.
The More You Run
The more you run, the harder I am to catch. What am I?
Your breath.
