Here’s a riddle born from moonlight and mystery, about a flower that defies the rules of the night.
The Black Rose’s Secret
At dusk, the cemetery gates hummed a mournful melody.
The sound deepened when storms approached.
What caused the “song”?
Answer:
Wind vibrating the rusted iron bars.
Explanation:
The “melody” came from wind vibrating the rusted iron bars of the cemetery gates. As the wind swept through the gaps, it caused the metal to resonate like the strings of a primitive instrument. Rusted bars vibrated more easily, producing low, mournful tones. When storms approached and the wind picked up, the vibrations intensified, deepening the eerie, song-like hum.
