New riddles!
Five different ones here for you folk to have a crack at:
1.
I am unwelcome at your door,
My brothers chase me on the moor.
And yet I am a guest most kind;
For when I leave I brush behind.2.
I may have but a foolish brain,
And lose it before April's rain,
But I'll warm yours, for it is said,
I'll leap and sit atop your head3.
I stared from the coins in Pericles' hand,
I who rules by the moon, and all things understand.
My kin gather rarely, but when we do,
We'll sit in a higher house than you.4.
My name's said when you lift a load,
To carry it along the road,
And though you fear me, run, and hide
You'll rest tonight with me at your side.5.
You never see me, but if you might,
You'll see my face in black and white.
And if there's something I forget,
I'll just head home, for there I'm set.Answers:
1. Fox
2. Hare
3. Owl
4. Bear
5. Badger
