Its something that each of us devours, Not just us but birds, beats, trees, and flowers, Frets iron and nibbles steel, Toil hard stones to meal, Exterminates king, collapse town, And blows the mountains down.
The Hobbit Time Riddle: This thing all things devours: Birds, beasts, trees, flowers; Gnaws iron, bites steel; Grinds hard stones to meal; Slays king, ruins town, And beats high mountain down.
This thing devours all things:
Birds, animals, trees, flowers, fruits;
Gnaws iron, bites steel;
Grinds hard stones to meal;
Slays emperors, ruins kingdom and
Beats high mountains down.
What is this thing?
Grow in trees, eat living things But have no teeth and Give birth to something that looks nothing like me.
What am I?
