Answer:
Before I grow I'm small. When I'm old I grow tall. When I die I give a mighty fall.
I run around the streets all day. Under the bed or by the door I sit at night, never alone. My tongue hangs out, waiting to be fed during the day. What am I?
I am all around you but you cannot see me. I have no throat but you can hear me. Valued during summer but despised in the winter.
I can be long or short. I can be grown or bought. I can be painted or left bare. My tip can be round or square. (one word)
I have a head and a tail but no body. What am I?
I'm the source of all emotion but I'm caged in a white prison.
