Try to come up with a riddle (must rhyme and not be super long) for me to answer. Kudos to someone that stumps me.

A thief snuck into a man's house while he was sleeping,

when he awoke feeling cold, and found signs of creeping,

He looked around and found nothing of value astrey,

So with what did the thief get away?

Read the hobbit and pray he didnt watch the movie. The riddles rhyme and are pretty short. Besides tolkien is a brilliant author.
