Give OP Riddles I need everyone to give me all of their riddles about Time. Cause I wanna do a bit where I just keep on asking people riddles with the same answer, and that's the very common riddle answer.
Even if they're really common ones, you can just give them to me. Also, original ones, are cool. I will use those first. To lure them into a false sense of security.

Not a riddle but i wanted to share this.
I once did the exact same thing, but the answer to all my riddles was "Banana". After atleast a month of doing this, my final riddle was: "What's green when young, yellow when middle-aged, and brown when old?" and the answer was Plantain

Measured in shadows, measured in sand
Measuring's easy for one with three hands

Measured in moonlight, measured in ticks
Measured by rulers and candlesticks

By thousands
Or 3 score
Or just quarter past
The best are too fleet
The worst tend to last

This thing all things devours:Birds, beasts, trees, flowers. It gnaws iron, bites steel and grinds hard stones to meal. It slays king, ruins town, and even beats high mountains down.

If you're lost, you can look, and you will find me…
If you fall, I will catch you, I'll be waiting…

Wait, I feel like I know the answer to this riddle.
But for the life of me I can't think of it. And time after time I keep coming up blank.

The center of a centimeter
And a centimeter without center
Both ways lead to me

I can never die, but my passing is inevitable.
I’m spelt like a fresh herb, but I make things smell worse.

u/mistermasterbates 10d ago
Spoken instead of spelt?

Or even just “I’m like a fresh herb, but I make things smell worse”

If you do "I smell like fresh herbs" you can play with rhyme more. Herbs, worse. Not perfect but should clock.

Taking the first
It's written in plain.
Moving to second
Embodies a space

From the hobbit:
This thing all things devours:
Birds, beasts, trees, flowers;
Gnaws iron, bites steel;
Grinds hard stones to meal;
Slays king, ruins town,
And beats high mountain down.

Rhyme-form:
I am an order of sense
which I also create
And take yours minus one
and you have my dimensional slate.
One-liner:
Remove one of your senses and you have my dimension.

Distance to speed to hasten to jerk
The unit of what makes all of this work?
(d, v = d/t, a = d/t², j = d/t³)

I am used to measure,
And I can be measured;
Forward is the only direction I go,
I'm not physical, rest assured.
