Answer:
I drive men mad for love of me, easily beaten, never free. What am I?
Although glory but not at my best. Power will fall to me when the man who made me dies.
I am the outstretched fingers that seize and hold the wind. Wisdom flows from me in other hands. Upon me are sweet dreams dreamt my merest touch brings laughter.
I am used when you jump off a bridge for fun.
I come in different colors and shapes. Some parts of me are curvy some are straight. You can put me anywhere you like but there is only one right place for me.
What never gets any wetter no matter how hard it rains?
