The question:
It has a tail, a side and a head I call it what I call a snake
It has no body and it is dead
The answer:
It must be a drake
The question:
Poets know the hearts of Men and Mer
But beasts can't know my heart, you see
This book was written by a bear
The answer:
It is not a book of poetry.
The question:
I gave you a sock, not unlike a box
With hammers and nails all around it
Two lids open when it knocks
The answer:
It must have been a great hit.
