Almost Catching Fire
People come and watch, from far away to see
Burning brightly, almost catching fire,
The colder it is the hotter I’ll be.
Then I die.
What am I?
Fall leaves changing colors. “Burning” with bright colors, when it’s cold outside the brighter the colors are.
Full of Holes Yet Full of Water
I’m full of holes, yet I’m full of water. What am I?
A sponge.
Two Faces But Show You One
I have two faces, but show you one.
I once had guests, but now have none.
I’m rarely bloody and seldom blue.
I’m often promised and sometimes new.
The moon. It has two sides, but on earth we only ever see one side. Man has been on the moon, but no one is there now. A full lunar eclipse is known as a blood moon, and the phrase “once in a blue moon” refers to something that rarely happens. Promising the moon is making an extravagant or impossible promise, and there’s a new moon once every lunar cycle.
I Wave But Never Say Goodbye
I wave my hands at you,
But I never say goodbye.
You’re always cool with me,
Even cooler when I’m high.
What am I?
An electric fan
Every Dawn Begins With Me
Every dawn begins with me
At dusk I’ll be the first you see
And daybreak couldn’t come without
What midday centers all about
Daises grow from me, I’m told
And when I come, I end all cold
But in the sun I won’t be found
Yet still, each day I’ll be around
The letter “d”.
