How can this be?: The shopkeeper lied! :o

No that isn't right. The real answer is that no one ever said anything

What always runs but never walks, often murmurs, never talks, has a bed but never sleeps, has a mouth but never eats?


My answer: a river.

Twas the night of the day
in which I must relay
that in which I took part in.
For the sun was out
and without so much as a shout
he quietly went in.
Twas ever so queer
I thought he would leer
but never a word did I get in.
For without another word
(at least that's what I heard)
He was back to the place he'd been in.

What am I?

This isn't mine, but it's quite good.

It fell from a star,
But not very far.
It seems to fly
Above you and I.
Look further down to see
Cousin Jay below us three.
Jump down further to see an empty space.
Tell me what "it" is, and where is this place?

It is greater than God and more evil than the devil. The poor have it, the rich need it and if you eat it you'll die. What is it?

The first 2 letters of this English word refer to a male, the first three refer to a female, the first 4 to a great man and the whole word is a great woman. What is the word?

Someone'll get this, too.
