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?

Big at the bottom,
Big at the top.
Long and thin in the middle.
I can roll on the floor,
And you can wind me up.
Now, can you guess this riddle?

Here's my all time favorite riddle. I know it from memory.
Only one color, but not one size.
Stuck at the bottom, yet easily flies.
Present in sun, but not in rain.
Doing no harm, and feeling no pain.
What is it?
