Two Common English Words
“H-e” starts and ends two common English words. One painful in love, one painful in everyday matters.
What are the two words?
Heartache and headache.
Reaching Stiffly For The Sky
Reaching stiffly for the sky,
I bare my fingers when it’s cold
In warmth I wear an emerald glove
And in between I dress in gold
A deciduous tree.
I Used to Be The Light of Your Life
I used to be the light of your life,
I’d keep you warm while I cried,
Now I’m forgotten and tossed away.
What am I?
A candle. They used to be a primary source of light, and to a lesser extent heat. The “crying” is the wax rolling down the candle.
What Has Hair and Leaks?
What has hair and leaks when something bad happens?
Your eye. Your eyelashes are the hair and when something bad happens, your cry.
I Widen My Jaws
I flex my jaws when you use me,
My only purpose is to damage,
Yet I’m used by small children.
What am I?
Scissors.
It Never Lasts Forever
You can have it
and be at it,
but it never
lasts forever.
Peace.

I Can Be Quick, And Then I’m Deadly
I can be quick and then I’m deadly,
I am a rock, shell and bone medley.
If I was made into a man, I’d make people dream,
I gather in millions by ocean, sea and stream.
Sand. Quicksand is deadly (at least in movies). Sand is made up of rocks, shells and bones. The sandman visits you when you dream (again, according to legend, I’ve never seen him…) and there is plenty of sand in the oceans, seas and streams.
