Voiceless it cries,
Wingless flutters,
Toothless bites,
Mouthless mutters.
What is it?

The Wind.
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
Halo of water, tongue of wood
Skin of stone, long I've stood.
My fingers short reach to the sky
Inside my heart men live and die.

A Castle, Keep or fortress
Ood Bnar
10-08-2005 17:51:55
It cannot be seen, cannot be felt,
Cannot be heard, cannot be smelt.
It lies behind stars and under hills,
And empty holes it fills.
It comes first and follows after,
Ends life, kills laughter.
What is it

Death?
>>>>>>>>
Always changing, yet always the same.
I am known as the element of life.
Men are fascinated by my movements.
What am I?

Darkness.
Quarter of an omen band,
Go fast because you must.
Hold me not - I am a lack,
When fields are naught but dust.

Ood Bnar
11-08-2005 05:22:42
oh yeah, Ark it isn't Death
It cannot be seen, cannot be felt,
Cannot be heard, cannot be smelt.
It lies behind stars and under hills,
And empty holes it fills.
It comes first and follows after,
Ends life, kills laughter.
What is it
It's the "Dark"
heres a new riddle:
I cannot be felt, seen or touched;
Yet I can be found in everybody;
My existence is always in debate;
Yet I have my own style of music.
What Am I?
Ood Bnar

Soul
This thing all things devours:
Birds, beasts, trees, flowers;
Gnaws iron, bites steel;
Grinds hard stones to meal;
Slays king, ruins town,
And beats high mountain down.
What is it

I am the center of gravity, hold a capital situation in Vienna, and as I am foremost in every victory, am allowed by all to be invaluable. Though I am invisible, I am clearly seen in the midst of a river. I could name three who are in love with me and have three associates in vice. It is vain that you seek me for I have long been in heaven yet even now lie embalmed in the grave.
What am I?"

Yet now complement jumpers.

Wrath
29-08-2005 20:37:30
I can destroy the world,
And bring fame,
All powerful-
Maker of name.
I roll along pressed snow
Leaving my footprints as I go,
Here when sword ruled the earth,
And still I remain,
A curse, and bringer of mirth.
Wrath
