If I Can I Can
If I can, I can,
If I can’t, I freeze.
What am I?
Someone preserving food. The two most common ways of preserving food are canning and freezing. So when you preserve food, if you can can it, you do, otherwise you freeze it.
Sometimes I Get Stronger From The Sun
I can help you have some fun,
Sometimes I get stronger from the sun,
If you never give me a break,
You will find I never wake,
I am optimistic on one side,
I can be short, fat, tall or wide,
Rectangle and cylinder are two of my shapes,
And I can even help you make video tapes,
Sometimes you must wait for me to get ready,
Just hold on for a few hours and be steady,
I can help you get around the mall,
Or help you make a telephone call.
What am I?
A battery. Games and other entertainment devices run on batteries. Batteries can be charged using solar power, which is from the sun. If you use a battery-powered device long enough, the battery will die. Batteries have a plus side and can be all shapes and sizes. They can power scooters and Segways commonly used in malls and your cell phone requires a battery to function.
I’m Yours, But Used More By Others
I belong to you, but am used more by others.
What am I?
Your name. It could also be your phone number.
The More You Run
The more you run, the harder I am to catch. What am I?
Your breath.
I Have Four Pairs of Letters
I have four pairs of letters,
Leaving two to stand alone.
You’re often doing the opposite,
When playing on your phone.
I help you get things done,
With one big caveat,
If taken to extremes,
I could make you fat.
What am I?
Efficiency. Being efficient helps you get things done, but if you’re extremely efficient with your tasks you get less exercise.
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.
What Has Roots Nobody Sees?
What has roots that nobody sees,
Is taller than trees,
Up, up it goes,
Yet it never grows?
A mountain (from Tolkien)
