Riddle of the Day List

Woven web with wisdom,

Carbon computer system,

Read this riddle, give it a tease,

Sip a slushie and it may freeze.

Through my canal waves come,

And then strike against a drum,

So you may know what is near,

Keep you upright, but do not steer.

Shreds, wedge, disc, and cube,

Are a few forms I can assume,

Describes issues too hot to touch,

Or one who's on a couch too much.

The earliest gets a treat,

Symbol of a life free,

Known to have the best view,

With one stone you may kill two.

I stay silent until I snap,

Catch all before me in my trap,

Everyone smiles when looking at me,

My eye winks when it's time to see.

To find me some look in the ground,

Others look towards the sky,

The essence of life,

But make many men die.
