What am I?
Riddles are little poems or phrases that pose a question that needs answering. Riddles frequently rhyme, but this is not a requirement.
Twice ten are six of us,
six are but three of us.
Nine are but four of us;
What can we possibly be?
Would you know more of us,
twelve are but six of us.
Five are but four, do you see?
HintIt`s as easy as ABC!

| I liked this one. Not impossible to solve but yet it has a good twist to it. |

| I also like this one! It is not obviously easy and it makes you think for a moment until it slaps you right in the head..  |

| I got at the first line also because there are so many riddles, and sequences here based on the number of letters in letters. That's just my experience though. Nothing fundamentally wrong with it. |
