Riddles

[tectak]

Try to answer. Then write your own.


Not sails or masts, not grog or wind 
But still a riddling sailor's friend. 
And while a fast friend's found at shore 
A fast ship's said to sail at more. 
And you can say that some are good 
Though often not when found in wood. 
And you can say that some are fair 
Though often not when found in hair. 

What not is not a certain name;
a slip, a mother's mother.
Tied and bound, a lover's game,
creeping weed, a rocks another.
