3. Dawns away, The day's turned grey And I must travel far away. But I'll be back And then we'll track, The light of yet another day. What is it?
Answer: The Sun or a shadow. The riddle is written as if the sun is speaking to us. It's not saying the sun tracks its light; it's saying:
- “I’ll be back” → the sun will rise again.
- “And then we’ll track the light”→ we(humans) will follow, notice, and live by its light through another day.
4. I am a strange creature, Hovering in the air, Moving from here to there, With a brilliant flare. Some say I sing, But others say I have no voice. So I just hum - as a matter of choice. What am I?
Answer: A hummingbird.
