So Simple I Only Point
I’m so simple I only point,
Yet I guide people all over the world.
What am I?
A compass.
Always Hungry, Must Be Fed
I am always hungry,
I must always be fed,
The finger I touch,
Will soon turn red

Three Brothers Share A Family Sport
Three brothers share a family sport:
A non-stop marathon
The oldest one is fat and short
And trudges slowly on
The middle brother’s tall and slim
And keeps a steady pace
The youngest runs just like the wind,
A-speeding through the race
“He’s young in years, we let him run,”
The other brothers say
“‘Cause though he’s surely number one,
He’s second, in a way.”
The hands on a clock (hour, minute, second).
A Ship To Ride the Greatest Waves
I am a ship that can be made to ride the greatest waves. I am not built by objects, but built by minds. What am I?
Friendship.
As Long As They’re Dead
This is a place. The first letter is after A and before Z but nowhere in between. You can bring as many people as you want, as long as they’re all dead. Where is it?
The cemetery. The letter C is after A and before Z, and it’s not found in the word “between”. The cemetery won’t take live ones. Fortunately I don’t speak from experience on that.
Son of Water
You eat something you neither plant nor plow.
It is the son of water, but if water touches it, it dies.
Salt. It comes from saltwater but salt melts ice (the solid form of water).
