An Iron Horse With A Flaxen Tail
An iron horse with a flaxen tail.
The faster the horse runs,
The shorter his tail becomes.
What is it?
A needle and thread.
I Turn Around Once
I turn around once,
What is out will not get in.
I turn around again.
What is in will not get out.
What am I?
A key.
I Always Send You In The Right Direction
I always send you in the right direction,
I’m arrayed in black and white,
Ignore me and lose my protection,
No more than two words are in sight.
What am I?
A one way street sign. It tells you the correct way to go, is black and white (in the United States), going the wrong way can get you a citation and the sign only has two words on it.
Long Legs Crooked Thighs
Long legs, crooked thighs,
Little head and no eyes.
No burn, make a ting,
Use hands, but no ring.
What am I?
A pair of tongs.
Glittering Points Downward Thrust
Glittering points
That downward thrust,
Sparkling spears
That never rust.
An icicle.
