Mind games (What am I?)

Okay ... Hopefully I translated this one well enough for you to guess it:

I am ...
The stone that drifts
The wood that sinks
The stone that runs
The air that stinks

What am I?

Well, have a good guess!

A volcano.

Rather lava... the volcano itself doesn't do those things

Ahh, damn! Okay, this was easy

Nishah wrote: Rather lava... the volcano itself doesn't do those things

No, Heart-of-the-pack is right. The volcano is everything of the stated things.

I shall admit defeat...

Good one Heart !

I'm the fox's tail
Sparkling in the wind
Curtains of our world
What am I?

This might be very easy for some....

A comet?

Hearth · Post by **Hearth** » Fri Jan 20, 2006 12:46 pm

No.

Do you think I should make it easier?

Scott Gardener · Post by **Scott Gardener** » Fri Jan 20, 2006 1:15 pm

Nah, at least not yet.

Cirrus clouds?

Hearth · Post by **Hearth** » Fri Jan 20, 2006 2:00 pm

No....

I give only 1 advice: Don't take it literally.

Imagination?

No. I'd also like to notify you, that the rules say 2 guesses/clue.

If anyone doesn't succeed in guessing or knowing it, I'll post an easier version of it.

Mist.

No....

Allright, I'll make an easier clue, regarding the same thing.

Lights of the North
Rays of sun,
dancing in the night
Ancient myths of nordic countries

I don't know if I am just making these clues too confusing...

Aurora borealis - nothern light ?

Hearth · Post by **Hearth** » Sun Jan 22, 2006 1:14 pm

Good job!

Wow

I would've never guessed this one! I have to keep this one in mind, Heart-of-the-Pack!

Thanks...
Well... My meager contribution...

Round as an Apple
Deep as a Cup
All the world's seas
Can't fill me up

what am I...

Hearth · Post by **Hearth** » Mon Jan 23, 2006 8:25 am

I'm just gonna throw out a wild guess...

A black hole?

Nishah · Post by **Nishah** » Mon Jan 23, 2006 8:47 am

nope.... but nice try...

Short Tail · Post by **Short Tail** » Mon Jan 23, 2006 11:52 am

A drain? Has to be

Nishah · Post by **Nishah** » Mon Jan 23, 2006 1:42 pm

Close but not yet...

Hmmm ... hmmm

Maybe an eye?

That's such a beautyful & poetic answer, I wish it was that...

But no sorry, Petard Was a lot closer....

A hint : take it literally
