momyent Oct 09, 2005	good i didn't get it but where i come from pearls are from oysters.
zonarita Oct 09, 2005	Wonderful Teaser. I loved it and got it right away. I have a pearl in a shell hanging in my car. I think about pearls a lot.

IMCUL4E Sep 13, 2006	i thought it was the moon
vlerma Apr 28, 2007	Not too shabby,
craniac Feb 17, 2008	The answer could just as well have been an opal, don't you think? Opals are formed in darkness inside rock, and they sparkle and glow and are valued as jewels. But I guessed a pearl was meant.
doehead Feb 17, 2008	A PEARL of a riddle.
AltrnativGrlx14 Feb 17, 2008	cutee...
bradon182001 Feb 17, 2008	My very first thought was the moon, then I reread the teaser and decided diamond. Wrong again!! Pearl is the perfect answer.Thanks for posting.
koolstarkid101 Feb 17, 2008	Easy, short and sweet...THANKS!
mondayschild59 Feb 17, 2008	The hint gave me the correct answer. I was thinking Diamonds, but they aren't grown. Great teaser. Thanks for posting. Monday~
pansy Feb 17, 2008	I thought of mushroom, because of the dark and it is round,
phyllisa Feb 17, 2008	Without the hint, I thought moon. Good one.
canfan95 Feb 17, 2008	nice!! It was easy, but I liked it
siskiu Feb 17, 2008	oh i thought it was the moon
fifiid Feb 17, 2008	i thought it was a moon too but i read on and guessed a necklace with a gem
salem33466 Feb 17, 2008	i thought it was some kind of a jewel and then i read the hint and guessed pearl...i was thinking a jewel since most jewels are formed underground in the dark good teaser!
bookwrmKP Feb 17, 2008	EZ yay 4 me, i got it without the hint! nice teaser, if a bit easy... make more!
me_macaroni3129 Feb 17, 2008	this was easy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
avonma Feb 17, 2008	I thought it was hard. Interesting, but hard. I must be tired...
jabdr Feb 17, 2008	I didn't check the hint because I was sure it was a diamond Still think it could go either way
smartymarty Feb 17, 2008	It was easy. I thought diamond first because of ladies delight. But diamonds are not round unless they are cut round and they shine with brilliant, not pale, light, so I went with pearl. Good teaser. Thanks
auntiesis Feb 17, 2008	I guessed moon, but then I saw the hint and changed my mind. To another wrong answer. Oh, well. Can't win them all.
VFD642 Feb 17, 2008	I guessed moon too, but then the moon can be seen even at day in the afternoon, where i live at least.
jonasandrainbow Feb 17, 2008	At first I thought a diamond, but after the hint I got it easily. Great teaser, keep them comin'!
snowbunny1222 Feb 17, 2008	got this right away. great riddle!
snowbunny1222 Feb 17, 2008	got this right away. great riddle!
settra626 Feb 17, 2008	Nice riddle. I got it right away, didnt seem that diffictul, fun none the less.
(user deleted) Feb 18, 2008	Friging stupid Not always round Not always white Not just worn by women
Lita_Lightheart Feb 18, 2008	I liked it! though, I needed the hint
dogg6pound9 Feb 19, 2008	well written... i thought moon also til i viewed the hint... then it came REAL easy, considering my wife is obsessed with white gold and pearls
mimi8743 May 18, 2010	WOOHOO!! I acually got it on the first try without the hint. I can't belive that I did that, because I can never never ever get any of the riddles right. But, of course, this one was easy, so I shouldn't be too proud of myself.
thebrain789 Feb 17, 2011	Craniac, opals aren't always round.
wordmama Feb 17, 2011	Before the hint I thought diamond, after, I got pearl (but I didn't get the moms part)
Jayo Feb 18, 2011	Re: The moms part 'Mother of Pearl' perhaps? Anyways nice riddle
juju1946 Feb 19, 2011	Oops! I guessed Opals and never even look at the clue!
