I'm an eye-opening skeleton
And the answer to this riddle!
My life is not all hard,
I'm smooth -- fit like a fiddle,
Solving mysteries is my game --
Hidden, dark, locked up secrets
I apply and solve all the same.
With symbols, thoughts, words, a pattern--
Want to see the universe,
I'll give you a map of Mars or Saturn--
Tell you to reach deep in the purse!
Maybe curved like the "c" in chord
Or straight like a blank of brass or steel,
Cursive or straight like that in Ford,
With just the right touch you master the wheel.

Yet another amazing piece!! I really like how the answer is the answer, if that makes any sense at all, lol. I think this is one of my favourites, because the answer is always something the tends to elude me when I'm trying to solve your riddles! Yet another great piece, keep it up!

Kim, thanks for your comment. Riddles are the oldest poetic form dating back to the ancient Greeks and early Romans. A book was found from the Middle Ages containing riddles that monks recorded and the name of the copy I read is titled, The Exeter Riddles, i believe (I don't know the publisher but i know you could find). It is very interesting as well as written and published in Old English, with modern translation and annotation. Also, Emily Dickinson (as well as many other poets too) has a famous one with a first line of "There's a narrow fellow in the grass...." Thanks again and sorry it took so long to respond but i missed your comment. Peace, David
