Encased Riddle

My form is fixed, firm, and hidden at the edge
I surround the image, and secure the line
For to be unnoticed is my important pledge
Supporting from backstage is my art so fine

To be relied upon is silent thanks from those who make
Unyielding founding structure for creativity
When you notice let me begin by being frank
If you follow me around, at the end of me is me


Answer at the wiktionary

Weak Riddle

One whose legs are weak is pushed
And is glad, though he is bushed
Him I had as he sat in the corridor
Of white while antiseptic smells
Through night until the vigils’ bells
You need no more, to find what am I
Your mind apply

Silver-lined my tails

With the flow

To fulfill my dream

By you that lives and breathes
And when you’ve passed on, I remain
A soulless rattling empty frame
Surrounded by the dirt and leaves
That covers those that have been

Riddle

Rosy is the air around
Internal eternity
Noisy is the Church bell’s sound
Guess your name for me.

Traveler’s find my distance long
Whether from chapel or Middle Earth
Join posies in a fertile song
An eternal promise, that I’m worth

The crooked, my tassels, ending their life
Or my plaits can spin in the darkness to save
Weaving down cliffs, relieving strife

Growing grey, cold and loud
Growing sound that casts a shroud
Blinding light that can't be seen
Wet rusting blades turning green

I start with the child of a goat
Then add what helps your leg kick free
You have only one of me, I note

What am I?

Update: Sorry, about this. How do I put it? This riddle is broken? When writing it I confused the kidney (of which we have two) and the liver. I deeply apologize for any stress I've caused you. However I got a good laugh out of it when I realized, so I'm leaving it as is.

Riddle

Will you visit my ancient grave?
Will you accept my line of blood
Out of respect for the life I gave
A seed I planted in the mud
That flowered into your first sigh?
Will you guess who am I?

Advent Riddle



Built at the start for holding things like bread
Weaving questions around, queries that said
That, ask within me, is my purpose set?
Mystic end of me, the last of my secret?
