"Riddle Two" by Rochelle Green

SF&F Picture 2 out of 2 by Rochelle Green

Another riddle for the same story.

Riddle Two

O thou of phoenix birth,

Who riseth in the toil of the land,

Who in sun blindeth all who deign behold

Thy tempered voice is sharp and sweet,

Thy might shatters land and castle

Only to break at the face of a stone

Only to drown in the depths of the sea,

and turn to pitch or roan.

13 Jun 2004	Steph Salt	Loading... Another good one, and it sounds like steel, but steel doesn't turn to pitch nor does it drown, so could it be wheat? But that doesn't glare in the sun, does it?
17 Aug 2004	Bill Renninger	Loading... I would guess it is rain
2 Oct 2007	Tony Orzech	Loading... A sword from flame is borne, needed to defend or conquer, polished to a brilliant shine to blind one in the sun reflected, singing sweet tones as through the air it cleaves, and in heros hand can conquer all, yet shatter on a rock if struck, and lost to all if dropped into waters deep, or tarnish from neglect and rust away into the earth from where was borne, a sword per chance, a sword?
6 Jan 2008	Dragon daughter	Loading... Wow I Love this one! Its gonna take me a while to figure it out. I think maybe a crop of some sort.
1 Feb 2008	Genesee Lin Judith-Papire	Loading... Fire-- it gives birth to the phoenix, it can destroy land/castle, can’t hurt stone, and goes out by water. I’m sure it fits everything else the riddle said, but I’m too lazy to find out.
12 Aug 2009	Stanko Jenes	Loading... yeah i think its fire too..... nice riddle anyway... i like it xD
