Riddles! (with answers)
This one has many faces
Often it travels far and wide
Though, on its own, it will hide.
Untouched, it will go many places
But for someone to keep contained
It must face its final end
When it must sadly bend
To keep a load restrained
Say what is this dry slave
That owes its use to a miserable wave.
Here's an easier one:
When small
Aid to the wandering
Sight to the blinding
When large
Eater of kingdoms
Bane of valley and mountainside
For life, it spreads wide
For death, it loses breath

The first one is...
A barf bag!
hahah who knew?
Second one is...
fire.
Told you it was easy... kinda overdone though. I mean, riddles are always about the elements, but a Barf Bag! that's much better.

Also notice that
"aid to the blinding"
is a specific reference to John Milton. It was said that reading by candlelight allowed his blindness to progress.
Gee, I sound like an Enlish teacher already.
