What has roots as nobody sees,
is taller than tree,
up, up it goes,
and yet never grows?
Voiceless it cries
Wingless flutters
Tootless bites
Mouthless mutters
An eye in a blue face,
saw an eye in a green face,
“That eye is like to this eye”
Said the first eye,
“But in a low place
Not in a high palce.”
It cannot be seen, cannot be felt,
cannot be heard, cannot be smelt.
it lies behind stars and under hills,
and empty holes it fills.
it comes first and follows after,
ends life, kills laughter.
a box without hinges, key, or lid,
yet golden treasure inside is hid.
This thing all things devours:
birds, beasts, tree, flowers;
gnaws iron, bites steel;
grinds hard stone to meal;
slays kings, ruins town,
and beats high mountain down.
can you figure them out?
