A Useful Thing...Riddles are little poems or phrases that pose a question that needs answering. Riddles frequently rhyme, but this is not a requirement.This is an old Italian riddle from 1300-1900 AD.
A useful thing, hard, firm, and white, Outside in shaggy robe bedight; Hallowed within right cleverly, It goes to work both white and dry. When after labour it comes back, You'll find it moist and very black; For service it is ready ever, And fails the hand that guides it never. Riddle courtesy of Trumalia.com What Next?
