She's a preacher, clerk, or solemniser?

Ten men she married this is true
Don't forget the ten women too
Ahh, ten couples don't you see
The woman serves in the ministry
Since in New York maybe then
Five good couples all good men

Dan,

Good job. I suck at rhyming (and not the best at riddles). I'm afraid to see what you have in store for us, but let's have it!

I'd have guessed court justice/judge.

When I was a teen I bailed hay for a farmer.

And his teenage daughter was really a charmer!

But that’s a separate story you know,

Those are different fields to be sowed!



The farmer had two fields in which I bailed hay that week.

When I was finished he came over to speak.

He said son, your work is not done

i have one more task for your fun



You see those fifty bails in one field and sixty in the other

I want them combined in the center field brother.

So, after my labor was finished,

How many haystacks? (Sorry, never been able to rhyme that last line)

Is it really that easy? I thought and I thought, figuring out the work that you wrought? Those bails that number one hundred and ten, is it really just simple mathematics then? Where is the trick I've missed, that's my fear, when solving this riddle while drinking a beer.

So fifty and sixty number one hundred ten, when they're combined, it's one stack then. Not in this field, nor in the other, but in the center, it goes my brother. Your work is done & you've earned your respite, but still I wonder, did I get it right?
Regards, GF.

I did make 110 bails of hay it is true
Yes One Stack is the answer, next riddle on you

I live in the water, I live on the land, to look at my life, I seem quite bland. You might see me in a circus, you may see me in a zoo, if you see me in the wild, I'm a danger to you. Some call me a horse, but I'm not of course, though I run in the water all day. At night on the bank, I look like a tank, as I graze on grass and hay.

My teeth are few, but long & yellow; anger me & I'll bite a fellow. I hope you can float, I'll smash your boat, and I love to yawn & bellow. If I step on your foot I'll crush it flat, as I weigh much more than a ton. Though in cartoons you see, I'm usually happy, dancing about having fun. Make a guess if you can, if you know what I am, guess right & you're quite the sleuth. Nature lovers at heart will know from the start & will easily guess the truth.
Regards, GF.

At a rhyming game, I am quite lame. I'll do my best but alas it is all in jest. What is as light as a feather, but even the world's strongest man couldn't weather. Try as he might it just wasn't right and he couldn't hold it for more than a minute.

Their hands on their ...

She sat on the grass,
She pulled up her dress,

She said she was learning,

Tis not my riddle
But I do carry a fiddle
I didn't get this one completely right
But brothers four may give you insight
Seasons change and we do too
Not for these brothers, they never do

There are four brothers in this world that were all born together:
The first he runs and never wearies,
The second eats and is never full.
The third he drinks and is ever thirsty,
And the fourth sings a song that is never good.

Maybe this an an easy one
I don't really know
- it's just for fun [emoji3]

*EDIT*

Comedy is timing, and once again, my timing sucked.

Carry on!

A Book

I rarely come up with a riddle of my own
I tweak a few words, make it personal.
My credibility is blown
Though not a plant, you'll find it on shelves

It has leaves but not green ones not something to delve

It is not human but does have a spine

It brings knowledge and comfort

'Tis more valuable than wine.

What is it?

Four words I typed
Twas all that was said
I answered in truth
My first post in this thread

My mind, it is rusty
In riddles and rhyme
I'll think of something
Just give me some time

You spoke up quite readily
But nothing to boast
For the answer, apparent
Was right in the post

I have a strong body
But a heartbeat naught
I have a sound head
But no thoughts to be thought

I come from an island
Oh, so far away
Yet right by your side
On a warm sunny day

I have no legs
Yet jump like a flea
I'll sing you a song
Though it comes not from me
