Brain Teasers
I Show You
You see me often ladies,
For I am a part of your life.
I sometimes bother babies
But prefer to cause adults strife.
My looks are a sign of your personality.
My strength cannot measure up to yours.
With most people I am there for eternity.
Onto me, water often pours.
Many look to me with pride,
While others wish to change me.
Drifting slowly, my time I bide
Waiting for you to see
That I am just a thing you're given,
Not something very important.
For I have always been and will forever be dead.

Hint
Note the "ladies."Answer
Hair.It often gets in your face (at least it does to girls).
Some babies are born with it, some are not.
You wash your hair often, and get it changed just as much.
This may sound a little too scientific, but hair is made of dead cells, just like your upper layer of skin.

Good teaser.
Yeah that was a good teaser! I like the ones that make me think! I got it right though.
I had to read it over twice, but I got it! I was thinking "your physical traits???" then I got it! Just a variation of my answer, i guess.
I liked it, would have never thought the answer to be hair!

THAT WAS AN EASY ONE. I USUALLY DON'T GET THEM. HOORAY FOR ME
Nice one - I was veering towards fingernails - same type of thing I guess, both made out of keratin protein!!
yeah that was cute, took a few secs.These can be hard to get 'cause they're hard to write.Try it, be funny,accurate, rhyme in some fashion,and try not to offend too many. BY THE WAY, "I got it,good for me is not a comment it is a poorly veiled attempt at bragging,over a teaser, get over yourself
Wow! I liked that nice teaser! Hard!
you really think babies get *bothered* by their hair?
yeah... this one was kinda lame.
and... well... kinda sexist.

I think that was pretty cool. It was kinda hard. I never get the teasers anyway though.

I probably should've read it through again--I guessed that it was a mirror
I liked your peom though
I liked your peom though
i got it after all my hair is dwon to mt hips
i had alot of guesses until the last line gave it away !
ohhhhh................
What does the 'ladies' part have to do with it? Men don't normally have hair?
Good one. Easy for me for some reason, but fun.Thanks for posting.
Poorly written. No like.
Yay Me. Got it right away.
I got it, but I really didn't like it. Sorry.
I thought of two answers... hair and reflection
and I still think it works for both!
and I still think it works for both!
I was lost until the last line and then I got it. Very good though!!
I got it. Buy I disagree w/ importance. A woman's hair is very important to her.
I was with the 'fingernails' people-but I liked it when I saw hair: same-ish

I also found this quite sexist and poorly written. A good riddle should have all necessary clues and only one answer. Keep trying!
i would have swore it was bre*st
Well,I got it.. not sure how I feel about it. Very much opinion so... yeah...
Don't know if I got it the first time, but today I guessed (eye)glasses.
Too easy, and I didn't like how it was written. The rhyme scheme was a bit off, and the last 3 lines didn't fit it at all. And why just ladies?
