Riddle of the day:
It twists and turns in the man's hands,
and he gains nothing.
Happy, he cleans it,
and puts it away, to use another day.

My silent chimes greet the summer,
a sky carpet under the boughs.

Riddle of the day:
I do not lie in a circle of stone,
I rise up high, and rarely alone.
My flesh is pale, my fingers dark,
Enjoy me in the park.

Riddle of the day:
In a lounge lurks a two-toned thing,
It will hide anything unless overthown.

Summer is here, and it's time for some more riddles.
Riddle of the day:
Dangerous to behold,
I am shunned by some,
but sought by many.
Although I am ancient,
I rise with the birds
and travel through the day.

It's been a few days since I last posted a riddle, but I still plan to keep them coming.
Riddle of the day:
Defender against a fearsome foe,
this man will always go.
Battling the elemental dance,
where the waters flow.

Riddle of the day:
My first is a colour,
my second a fruit,
my whole makes a man
for whom you'll root.

I've had no answers proposed for the last couple of riddles, although I must admit yesterday's is probably obscure unless you're a physicist (I have had the odd request for more physics ones).
Yesterday's riddle has got me thinking about riddles involving brothers, though. There is a traditional one which starts with 'two brothers are we.' I will have to think of one involving three, but here goes one with a few more...
Rings flash in the light,
As the five brothers stand on a ridge,
One points the way,
but another opposes all.

Riddle of the day:
Four brothers are we,
although once we were one.
Many seek a way
For that to be undone.
The first is imprisoned,
the second pale and wan,
the third sees all,
the fourth stopped by none.

Riddle of the day:
In the reach of the red drake, a lofty lord looms.
Many rail against this winter-named guardian of the giant's grave.
