I heard this one at one of the story nights a while back and liked it.

Hope you slept well! Am looking forward to hearing your next one. I love riddles and word play. Fun fact here riddles play a very important role in culture. It is traditional that at meals the guest of honor stands to sing a riddle or story and during the meal we discuss it to see who can solve it first. Whoever solves it must then sing a story that relates to the riddle told. During my work today a story teller came to entertain us by singing riddles and songs for us to solve.
