A Riddle Because It's Tuesday

To the bold, I am a weapon;
To the gallant, I am a pin;
To the gracious, I am a service;
To the bridesmaid, I am a win.

To the traitor, I am a bribe;
To the star, I am a screen;
To the swift, I am an arrow;
To the bride, I am a dream.

What am I?

I am partially baked.
I am not completely lit.
I am a portion of the moon.
I am lesser than full wit.
I am a divider of the hour.
I am not a total lie.
I am a sibling through one parent.
Can you guess....what am I???

A Riddle Just for YOU!

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,
Though I might not do what you want, although parched I may be,
But if you're really hungry and are looking for a bite,
I don't think you could eat me even though you say you might.
Decipher all these clues and then together they should tie
To help you solve the question which, of course, is "what am I?

If it's Tuesday, then it's Riddle Day!

When a songbird, enchanting.
When solo in a band, enduring.
When played at home, entertaining,
Tell me to what I am referring.

Late in the day riddle

I can be smelly.
I can be clean.
I can be blue.
I can be green.

People wear me.
Or they are bare.
Worn in or outside.
Worn here or there.

Many sizes.
Not many shapes.
I'm usually not zoomed in on,
In family tapes.

What am I?

Riddling

A two hundred dollar purchase
With a twenty-five dollar rent,
Until you have all four of us,
Then an even return you'll get.

One is next to Illinois,
And one borders Virginia.
One has no state name next to it,
The fourth's near Pennsylvania

What are we?

First Riddle of 2011

Dead on the field lie ten soldiers in white,
felled by three eyes, black as night.

What's going on here?
