Riddles are little poems or phrases that pose a question that needs answering. Riddles frequently rhyme, but this is not a requirement.Riddle
We spread tears but no blame do we deserve
Your protection and good health we preserve
We do make you temporarily blind
But in a way that's not at all unkind
Up and down as your day you go about
We're usually closed when the lights go out
What are we?
Your protection and good health we preserve
We do make you temporarily blind
But in a way that's not at all unkind
Up and down as your day you go about

How do you come up with these topics for teasers? What kind of weird free association is going on in your head every day? Given the challenge, "write a riddle about eyelids", I would not come up with something as clever as this. How do you just fish around the infinity of existence to pull this out?
