'T'
Riddles are little poems or phrases that pose a question that needs answering. Riddles frequently rhyme, but this is not a requirement.
I have T at my start,
I have T at my end.
I have T in my middle,
And it comes through my bend.
What am I?

| I've got 't' in my middle meaning I've got tea in my middle, and it comes through the spout, ie. bend! |

| By the way, good teaaser and a note to shop and paig, it's not 'a' T but t, tea the drink. A spout on a tea pot is slightly bent, the drink is poured through it. WHAT DON'T YOU UNDERSTAND! |

A post tea movement would end up in its middle which would go thru its bend! |

| hmm, I guessed Teatime where you drink tea at the end...but the bend part didn't line up well with that, figured maybe it was a figure of speech (teatime's just around the bend?)
good though |

| That was a very simple one - when you have a word for the answer that is a letter used within the puzzle, it is almost a gimme. |

| THis one is not a classic, it is an antique. I think it was originally thought up by George Washington's great grandmother.  |

| i thought it was tangent. in trigonomity when you bisect a triangle with the corners and the sides it forms a t. |

| If I hadn't read it wrong, I would have figured it out!
I (in my mind) put an "a" before each "T." Then I was lost! But, I see it now.
Good one! Thanks!  |

| Very nice and you had to think about how many ways you could use the key letter "T" At first I was thinking a word that began and ended with "T" and then realized it was not necessarily to be a letter. Good one! |

| I thought it was a t-shirt, I think that may have worked-regardless, I enjoyed & appreciate it! Thanks!  |

| My first thought was T-shirt. Begins and ends with "T" - T in the middle = Tummy - which pokes through the "bend" of the shirt (at the bottom as the tummy protrudes) - Far fetched-but that's the way I got my answer!
Nice teaser!  |

| It's just one of those riddles that really only works if you say it aloud. Written down it's either misleading or gives itself away. |

| 8 sec. T thru " bend " = teapot.. |
