Riddle

A riddle is a statement, question, or phrase that has a double meaning. A riddle can also be described as a puzzle to be
solved. When someone uses a riddle, it can be a thought provoking challenge to figure it out on your own, or it can be a
funny comment that makes you laugh. Riddles can be great brain busters or conversation starters to get you think. 
Examples:

 “Three eyes have I, all in a row; when the red one opens, all freeze.” The answer is traffic light.
 “What animal walks on all fours in the morning, two in the afternoon and three in the evening?” The answer
is man, since he crawls as a child then walks and uses a cane when he gets older.
 What does “Mill + Walk + Key=” The answer is Milwaukee.
 “What gets wetter and wetter the more it dries?” A towel of course. 
 “No sooner spoken than broken. What is it?” It is silence.

Proverb
A proverb (from Latin: proverbium) is a simple and concrete saying, popularly known and repeated, that expresses a
truth[citation needed] based on common sense or experience. They are often metaphorical. Proverbs fall into the category of
formulaic language and form a folklore genre.
Example:

 "Absence makes the heart grow fonder” – (this means that when you separate from someone that you
love by putting distance between you that you will inevitably love them more and yearn to see them.)
 "All that glitters is not gold” – (this means that just because something looks good, does not necessarily
mean that it is good.)
 "A monkey in silk is a monkey no less” – (this means that just because someone dresses fancy does not
necessarily mean that they are fancy or of good character.)
 Early to bed and early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise.
 It’s no use locking the stable door after the horse has bolted.
 Laugh and the world laughs with you, weep and you weep alone.
 See a pin and pick it up, all the day you’ll have good luck; see a pin and let it lie, bad luck you’ll have
all day.
 ‘Tis better to have loved and lost, than never to have loved at all.
 Monday’s child is fair of face/Tuesday’s child is full of grace,/Wednesday’s child is full of
woe,/Thursday’s child has far to go,/Friday’s child is loving and giving,/Saturday’s child works hard for
its living/And a child that’s born on the Sabbath day/Is fair and wise and good and gay.

Quotation
A quotation is the repetition of one expression as part of another one, particularly when the quoted expression is well-
known or explicitly attributed by citation to its original source, and it is indicated by (punctuated with) quotation marks.

Examples:

“The greatest gift you and your partner can give your children is the example of an intimate, healthy, and loving
relationship.”
Barbara De Angelis
“They teach the morals of a whore, and the manners of a dancing master.”
Samuel Johnson

A man who lives right, and is right, has more power in his silence than another has by his words.
Phillips Brooks (1835-1893) American Episcopal clergyman.

Don't be just another member of society, be a living example of your dreams and goals.
Unknown Source

People seldom improve when they have no other model, but themselves to copy after.
Oliver Goldsmith (1728-1774) Irish writer, poet, and physician.

Tanaga
The Tanaga is an indigenous type of Filipino poem, that is used traditionally in the Tagalog language. The modern
tanaga is used in a variety of Philippine languages and English due to popularity in the 20th century. Its usage declined in
the later half of the 20th century, but was revived through a collectivity of Filipino artists in the 21st century. The poetic
art uses four lines, each line having seven syllables only. The art exemplifies teachings, idioms, feelings, and ways of life.

My Example Poem
    (Tanaga)

Casually boys contemplate,


Carefully they cogitate,
what will they appreciate
when they're searching for a mate?

Will she need to cook and sew?


I suspect the answer's no.
Will she need to use a wrench,
or speak Mandarin or French?

Need she work with quilting thread,


or perform with brush or pen?
I think I'll say no again-
if she pleases him in bed.
