Ahh that was actually a good riddle Kyriakos. I think one of us would have got it eventually.

I'm working on one but trying to make it not too easy.

Thanks

You can't punch me or slap me,
You can kick me but I'll just race away,
You can corner me but I'll just fly away,
You can catch me with a net but I'll just go home.

What am I?

(I think this might be quite an entertaining one I just came up with. Hope it's not too easy.)

Yes, a football/soccer ball.

Well done!

Never did this before but here goes. Not too difficult I think

When you have it, often you don't want it"

Virginity? (it isn't possible to have it once you lose it, so you just start with it).

Ahh Interesting but that's not the answer i wanted unfortunately. Really good guess though! :-)

Youth?

I was just about to post the same guess.

KyriakosCH · Sat 25/05/2019 12:53:18

Yes, i thought of that too, yesterday (after it was revealed my first guess was wrong). But i decided to not make two guesses in the row ^_^

A phone call?

Kweepa got it! Youth it is. childhood would've been accepted as well.

This one could potentially be my opus,
Carefully read all of my words and focus:

We have roots in the earth,
Our trunks grow from the ground,
Bark lies round our girths,
Branches radiate around,
The leaves at their end,
To your needs tend.
But we are not trees,
What are we?

I won't answering any replies until a week from now and then the first winner will receive a special trophy for their collection.

Please do not reply with an answer more than once.

Aaaand here we are a week later and nobody has solved it.

The correct solution was:

Well, we all have a face,
That we hide away forever,
But I take mine out and show it,
Because it's so pret-ty,
Some are satin, Some are steel,
Some are silk and some are leather,
Mine is dust and some controversy,
About if we ever met.
