Riddle of the Day List

I scale walls slow but effortlessly,

Seen in old, prestigious universities,

My countless little tendrils cling,

Some breeds poison upon touching.

Rules of the game of life we play,

Irrefutable scientific discovery,

It is said none are above me,

Laid down to assert authority.

Rise from earth, fall into bags,

Adorned with strings and tags,

A whiff and sip perks you up,

As I steep within your cup.

A location picked by thieves,

A surprise dollar may be received,

If I am deep, wealth is possessed,

Where cold hands go to rest.

Celestial pendulum swing,

If I rip, danger I bring,

It’s said I turn when fate shifts,

As I rise I lift all ships.

Many small cells contained,

Work then die when they are drained,

A positive and negative end,

Allows my power to expend.
