I am not old, I am not young I cannot carry, but I am strong In this world I have no place I carry of at my own pace. I am a thing, that you can’t see But once a day, you become me I cannot search, for I am blind But there’s not a thing, that I can’t find. I cannot run, I cannot stop I can’t lose heigh, I’m at the top But to find me, you must dig deep But stop once the hill, has gone to steep. What am I?

greed

#4

that’s a good answer. but how does it relate to this line: "But once a day, you become me "

#5

It has to be an emotion of some sort. The “I am not old, I am not young” line would disqualify anything tangible.

#6

wow thats a good one… so many things come to mind but dont quite fit… sleep and love are my top choices… i dont think either is quite right though

#8

maybe its ‘dream’ than? i dont know the answer, maybe kblade has heard it before,

#9

yeah i was thinking dream as well

#10

How do you become a dream though? And I don’t dream every night so that one’s out.

#11

yeah hence my original thought it was sleep (asleep/slumber)

With sleep again you run into the “become me” thing and the last two lines would not make sense.

#14

im thinking thats some kind of metaphor for death… being buried, over the hill (old age)…

#15

Water?

#16

Interesting but again we come back to the same line: “But once a day, you become me” And is death strong? I would assume that death is nothing.

#18

water sounds good too this line though "But once a day, you become me " to become ‘water’ is what?

#19

no you misunderstand… i think its actually sleep the last 2 lines make sense for sleep if you think of death as eternal slumber…

#20

another crack at the answer: hope
