Born in 1946, Died in 1947
A man is born in 1946 and dies in 1947, yet he was 86 years old. How is that possible?
He was born in room #1946 of the hospital when he was born, and died in room #1947 86 years later.
An Eye In a Blue Face
An eye in a blue face
Saw an eye in a green face.
“That eye is like to this eye”
Said the first eye,
“But in low place,
Not in high place.”
A daisy in the grass. The big eye is the sun.
This is from J.R.R Tolkien’s The Hobbit.
I Hide In A Dark Tunnel
I hide in a dark tunnel awaiting my time.
I can only be released by pulling back.
Once released, I may do unspeakable damage.
A bullet.
Can Only Be Given, Not Taken Or Bought
It may only be given,
Not taken or bought,
What the sinner desires,
But the saint does not.
Forgiveness.
I Live Above A Star
I live above a star but never burn. I have 11 neighbors but they never turn. My initials are p, q, r and sometimes s.
What am I?
Number 7 on a phone keypad.
I Go Around In Circles
I go around in circles,
But always straight ahead
Never complain,
No matter where I am led.
A wheel.
