Hello all.
I'm fairly new to Sleuth and I thought I might share a little hobby of mine with you all. Here's something for that sad moment when the mysteries of the day are all done.
Thousands lay up gold within this house,
but no man made it.
Spears past counting guard this house,
but no man wards it.
What is it?

Arabella your riddle is quite tasking.
i do find a bit of happiness in the fact though,
that thank goodness you weren't my high school teacher.

Perhaps I should give you all some advice, or perhaps the answer.
Oh look I already did. :D

If a man carried my burden,
He would break his back.
I am not rich,
But leave silver in my track.
What am I?

Here's a riddle I made up. It's probably confusing, but someone might get it....
I've seen everything since time began
But I am not God's eyes
I am the bringer of darkness
And reflect the light that flies
Scientifically, I do not exist
Metaphorically, I'm the definition of forever
I am seen in many colors
But there are few that you'll remember
Can anyone guess? ;)

Talianna - Is it a black hole?

Sorry, Phoenix, that's not right
(I think blackholes have been proven to exist... but I could be wrong)
However, I do agree that that's a good answer. ;D
