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?

Oh dear, my secret is out. The Mad One is my double. We are one and the same, two sides to the same coin.

Anyway back to the riddles.

What are the missing letters in this sequence, and why?

A second riddle,
As starcrossed lovers we appear
or oft as hunter and his prey
His dreams at night caress my face
and his passion seeks me by day.

Sometimes I stand bold and proud
showing a watchful face to the world
Yet often I am coy
and hide my face in velvet swirls.

In the beginning he arrives
in a glorious blaze of heat
In the end he whimpers and retreats
below the wall of deams.

Who are we?

OK, here's is a riddle Fiona Applepare arrives home from work. She just realized that her library book was overdue, but quickly cast aside the matter. She consumed a cognac or two, and went to work to take care of her 2 year old daughter. When she finished her dinner, she went to bed. Her husband came home to see 3 awful things on the bed: #1 is his wife's dead body. #2 is________, and #3 is_____________. What are numbers two and three.

The librarian killed her. He used #2, the murder weapon- a heavy book. #3 was an "overdue" slip, the final clue... gawd, that story's old!
