Q. I am one of very few, perhaps the only one, to look like what I represent. What am I ?
A. The word 'bed', which looks like an actual bed. The 'b' is the headboard, the 'e' is the mattress and the 'd' is the footboard. If you know of another word that looks like the object it represents, let me know.
Q. First I am one, then I seem none,
In death I birth new life.
What's raised exceeds me,
For on bent knee,
I add to a world that's rife.
What am I ?
A. A seed. One seed turns into a plant or tree and seemingly disappears. When a plant dies, the seeds can be harvested to create new plants. From a single seed, hundreds more are created, vastly exceeding the original. Gardeners care for plants on bent knee and each new plant helps make the air fresher.
