High Above
High above the lowly earth, and yet I flourish for all I'm worth.
I hang between the earth and sky, green or brown as the seasons pass by.
As around me all the birds do fly, and just before winter, away go I.
Tell me true, what am I?

first again, I liked this one ccccc, very good job well done
i was thinking tree for some reason, but leaf is a better answer....
I was leaning towards leaves but I was thrown off by the high above the earth part. Well I guess some leaves are pretty high up there. Good job
good teaser, i feel kinda stupid for not gettting if
i got this one! yay! keep 'em coming!
Very, very cute little diddy!!!! I loved your rhyme. Nice job my friend!!
pretty good, but a little obivious, try making it a little trickier next time. good job though
nice one, make it trickier!!!
smarty blondy wonderful teaser. I grew up where they could be yellow, orange or red if we had a wet spring. Great job!
i was also thinking tree. do i get partial credit?
The color change as seasons pass gave it away. Well written though.
You gave it a suree giveaway there! Good one though.
Leaves-yup!!!
Nice teaser. It didn't "leave" me guessing.
great teaser, very nice..thanks
High above the earth??? I thought it was a kite. Kids do not fly them in the winter and they are high above the earth. Higher than a leaf on a tree.
That one was quite easy. Thanks for posting!
