I didn’t ask for the answers, so no follow-up.
Beauty is in the eye of the "bee-holder".
Got the first one, still working on #2.
Since he said he didn't ask for answers and there will be no follow-up, it looks like we will have to figure out what an "Abother riddle" is for ourselves.
Answer is above: Maybe I should have put 'Beauty" in all caps? :-)

The answer to the first riddle is 'paper'.
The answer to the second riddle is 'tears'.

Snowflake would work for the first one.

A snowflake was never alive in the first place.
A bee would survive the drop & they die in water. and a bee would 'bee' a better answer.
I keep bees, I know these things.

A snowflake exists ie alive----like a color or idea can be alive. It disappears and dissolves in water and no longer exists, hence dead. Try not to be too metaphysical.

Ok. By definition you just lost your argument.
Metaphysical: "of or relating to things that are thought to exist but that cannot be seen".
And I don't believe I was. A bee lives in reality, an idea only 'metaphysically'. I believe that "Try not to be too metaphysical" applies more to you by definition. Look it up.
In any case don't bother answering, I will not be watching this thread, or better, go ahead & have the last word if you wish.

I don't need the last word to comment on your absurd misconceptions. Your truncated definition of metaphysical matters implies that if something cannot be seen it is not real.
Nonsense. Tell me what justice looks like, what color is integrity, take a photo of big. You can't "see" those things so obviously (to your small mind) they cannot be seen and are therefore are not real.
Have you ever heard the terms "... the hills were alive with the sound of music? Or how about "a live wire"? Go back and commune with your bees, they have more sense than you apparently, but unfortunately you both lack the ability to recognize abstract concepts. So, bzzzzz off.
First one is: The Wicked Witch of the West
Second: Dunno
