Riddle me this
Mates unbalanced,
Or so they seem;
But paired in tandem,
A deadly team.
She so gently round,
Him so firm and straight,
Yet when they are compounded,
Woe to them they hate.

Riddle to Solve
Can you identify what the riddle is talking about?
Such manners!
They visit every single house
And wish to stay and eat.
When they get their food,
They tread it with their feet.
We wish these visitors would go away,
They don't say thank you,
They never pay
Please leave us alone!

I'm called a man,

But not given life.

But I wasn't given breath.
Water gives body,
And sun gives me death.

Running out of Riddles
I contain faces of different colors,
for fun they get mixed with one another.
It's easy for them to hang outside their 'race'
but it's quite tricky to put them back in their place.
With time and patience it can be done,
but to mix them up again is way more fun.

If to you I'm given you should thankfully receive,
Then look me over carefully, just don't look at my teeth.
Show me to a cool stream and I'll follow willingly,

But if you're really hungry and are looking for a bite,
