Riddle:
In and out, like the tides, I go.
Past the jaws, I move to and fro.
If you lose me, find me fast,
Or else my loss will be your last.
What am I?

Hm, I had to read this a couple of times, but my guess is ... your breath?
breath
Your tongue?
Happy Friday!
Can I have a second guess?
Your breath.
Breath!
No idea, but I will guess a shadow. I have a feeling thought, that that isn't it.

Do you have a braindead version of this I can do? :)
You threw me with the last line. Up until then I was going to say 'tongue'.
Some kind of small fish?
I was going to say tongue until I see people are syaing breath. That sounds better. LOL
Is it your breath?
My first thought before finishing it was dental floss. (before reading past the jaws...)But after reading it in its entirety...breath. Like everyone else! :0)christy
The tongue? And I didn't look!
Darn it. I didn't get here before the answer was posted. And at 5 am when I was blogging, I can guarantee I wouldn't have guessed it. ;)
Honestly, I figured it out before I saw the answer! I love brain teasers :)))
Have a great weekend!
I thought it was the tongue at first, too.
Very good teaser, Summer.
Here I got up early before my eyes swell again and you are messing with my mind with brain teasers. Bad fairy :)
Have a great weekend Summer!
