Guess This Riddle

I have many leaves,

But I am not a tree;

I’m something nice,

Come and read me.

The field is white,

Black is the seed,

And sower who sowed it

Was clever indeed.

I’m neither a rhyme nor a song,

I can be short or very long,

I can be funny or quite sad,

But to read me, you’ll be glad.

seed – зерно

sower – сеятель

to sow – сеять
