This contest is about riddles, do you know the answer
It's like trying to pick out, which Reindeer is Prancer
Well, I'll give the riddles a try, which one is the best
I'll take the Rooster and put the question to a test
First how did the Rooster get on the roof, please answer this I beg
The egg would not fall either way, for Rooster's don't lay eggs
Next I think I'll tackle the Chicken and the road
The Chicken didn't cross the road, she rode on the back of a Toad
Now what do we have left, that is in riddle form
Oh yes the problem of the glass which is not the norm
Is the glass half full my friend, or is it half empty
No matter for the water is cool and either will be plenty
I never saw Fantasia, so I don't know what you're talking about
If I did and I knew the answer, I would sing it with a shout
So I guess I end this poem as there are no more riddles
I'll just go and find, the musical cat with his fiddle

lol, I liked your answers. As for how a roster got up there to try to lay an egg...he was shot out of a cannon and hit his heas thus becoming convinced he was a chicken. As for the toad, well, that explaines why chickens have warts all over their feet. As for teh glass of water, it is completly full! There is water in one half, and air in the other!
lol I liked your answers. They were fun to read. Really put a smile on my face. -
