I’m thinking maybe the moon?? I’m not sure but I came up with something

I am free of color
I have substance, yet you can’t grab me


What am I?
Be yourself and dream big; maybe it won’t be a dream one day :tiphat:

Intriguing. But we usually take turns. The one who guesses the riddle, gets to ask the new one.

Hi @Bianca Bennett 2 and WELCOME to The Riddle Game! :text-welcomewave: There is a riddle in progress at the moment. If you look above your post you will see one by Diana Lowery. Diana solved the last riddle so it is now her turn to create a new one. Please join us in trying to solve Diana's riddle. Whoever succeeds will then be the next to offer a new riddle. Good luck! :D

This one is a homophone. It has political undertones, so I hope I don't offend anyone.

Sometimes campaign slogans use this word.
Sometimes the word does this.
This is another wild guess, but could it be ... Liberal (as in party) vs liberal (as in accommodating)?

Nope, sorry. Liberal is a good guess, but it is not a homophone.

The only thing I know about American political slogans is Make America Great Again?

You have the right slogan, but which one of those words is the homophone?

Great vs grate ?

TRIVIA: I remember a story of a time at a White House ball a woman writer was making small talk with Abe Lincoln and asked him if he knew that the word "sugar" was the only english word that was written su but sounded sh. Lincoln immediately responded, "Are you sure?"

That's a great piece of trivia.
And I think you solved Diana's riddle.

I am beginning to worry about @Diana Lowery. I greatly fear that she may have been abducted by the Space Gypsies. :o ... :shock2: ... :|

Diana, we checked often with the guard in the OnlineBookclub tower which overlooks the road to the drawbridge and his reply was always the same .... "She cometh not!" I speak for all when I say we are glad that you have returned unscathed.

NEW RIDDLE:
1) I am thought to mess up perms
2) I attend every baseball game
3) My excrement is oft compared to the antics of crazy people

What am I ?

It is nice to be missed.
Your riddle is VERY interesting.
