Every animal I can become, even a snake
If a present you give, up up I will grow
Take it away and down I will go

Riddle #11
Two puddles, a lily in each
And reeds along their edge
The reeds swallow the puddles
Above the lilies they wedge

Riddle #10
I often play with both young and old
I have no top nor bottom, or so I am told
I can go up
I can go down
I can go all around
But everywhere I am
No matter my size
People always try to hurt my sides
I have no top nor bottom, or so I am told
I can go up
I can go down
I can go all around
But everywhere I am
No matter my size
People always try to hurt my sides

Riddle #9
A giant when it is young
A midget when it is old
Creating and destroying
Our thoughts untold
A midget when it is old
Creating and destroying

Riddle #8
Prefers winter to summer
Likes mountains and the north alike
While traveling in packs they can appear as one
But when looking for twins there are none
Riddle #7
Has four legs
Occasionally two or three
Can hold your body
When tired you may be
If you long for its embrace
To it you may go
But when asked to return the favor
The answer is always no
Riddle #6
Whispers, growls, howls
Words unknown and lips unseen
Going high and coming low
Not knowing where it's been
Riddle #5
Dead but grows
Shines and glows
But it may fade away
As time goes on
Its color will change
Giving to some, sadness at that stage
Riddle #4
Always eats but never swallows
Taking in and spitting out
In its mouth it only carries
Continuing to move about
Never forward and never back will it ever go
If you signal for it, it will always show
Riddle #3
Telling stories of the past
For as long as it may last
Hides away during the day
But at night comes out to play

Riddle # 2
I adorn tips, tops, and edges
Giving life to that which I touch
There comes a time to leave my home
But onto it I clutch
If ever I should let it go
In my color it will show
From soft to hard I shall change
Crumbling and cracking, I may come to look quite strange
Starting a New Blog!!!
Ok, I've been trying to think of an interesting/fun project for myself that I may actually continue over a period of time and I came up with this! Everyday I will have to post a new riddle and people can guess the answer in the comments. Heh heh, we'll see how long this lasts. I think, initially, I will just message the answer to those who want to know, as to not ruin the fun for everyone else.
You may be wondering "Why riddles Rachel?" Well... anyone who really knows me may know the answer. I love riddles! Ever since reading The Hobbit as a child, maybe even earlier, I've really had a passion for solving/ writing riddles. A passion I had more or less forgotten about until I watched The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey and started writing them again -cough- super nerd -cough- .......
Anyways! Here is a little something I wrote this week ; )

Holds knowledge deep within
Leaving hints of it upon its skin
When you first meet you should break its back
This may seem cruel but it is a well known fact
