Riddles

NafisaSB

Why are fish so well-educated

Because they are found in schools ??

But are their ideas new or outdated

Do they follow the rules?

 

When is a nation like a baby

When it is found in arms?

Why would a chicken swear when it spoke

Because it’s a fowl [foul] on the farms?

 

Which bird can lift the heaviest weight?

I feel it is the crane

Which umbrella is like a bossy woman?

The one accustomed to rain [reign]?

 

Which bird has wings but cannot fly?

Why, the bird that is dead

When is a nose, not a nose-

When it is a little red?

 

Why is a beggar like a baker

Because he kneads [needs] the flour

When are tulips not talkative

When they blossom into a flower?

 

Riddles may come and riddles may go

But one does always persist

If life is a riddle without solution

Who did originate it?
