Riddles by Marco Hartman

Here are some interesting riddles composed by one of CCEB students. Do you know what the answers are? (check at the end of the post).

Riddle me this:

If I get used, I will shrink.

But I don’t fear it, it’s my purpose.

Then I will leave a mark on many pages.

What I am?

 

 

Riddle me this:

I tell a story, but I don’t speak.

I can have many colors,

but am always in black and white.

Of bad or good, I do not judge.

                                                                                            Then I can know everything.

                                                                                                      What I am?

 

Riddle me this:

Blue is above you.

Green can be seen.

Black brings you off track.

But what colour can you not play?

 

Riddle me this:

You can’t see me, but you feel me working.

I came before you and will be, long after you go.

I witness everyone coming and going in this world.

So I will move on, never resting, until the end.

                                                                            What I am?
