A One Letter Change
At my start I last a mere eleven days,
But change one letter and I’m over 31 years.
What am I?
One million seconds (about 11 1/2 days).
Change the “m” to a “b” to get one billion seconds (about 31.7 years).
It’s rather surprising that a million seconds and a billion seconds differ by such a large duration.
A Shorter Word
What word becomes shorter when you add letters to it?
Short. Adding ‘er’ to short gives you shorter.
Look At Me And Think of Yourself.
When you look at me,
You think of yourself.
I am always ready to talk
Whether times are easy or rough.
What am I?
A mirror.
Where None Should Be
One where none should be,
Or maybe where two should be,
Seeking out purity,
In the kings trees.
What am I?
A unicorn
Hurt Without Moving
We hurt without moving.
And poison without touching.
We bear truth and lies,
But are not judged by size.
What are we?
Words.
Can’t Be Touched, Can Be Felt
It can’t be touched, but can be felt.
It can’t be opened, but can be gone into.
Those who seek it always find it under something,
yet it moves from place to place.
Shade. You can’t touch shade, but you can feel its coolness. You can’t open shade but you can go into it. If you’re looking for shade it always has to be underneath something to block the light and shade moves as the light does.
