I'll let someone else do a riddle I'm no good at inventing them.

aww, c'mon... you could just ask sephiranoth on order shard to describe something and post what he says... or use easy descriptions but mix up the letters of each word... or descibe the letters that spell out the answer... i think you underestimate your ability with that statement!
well i'm kind of lame at these but i'll try another...
Thin and tall, yet rather small
Green and white, I never fight
Near slobbering flesh, yet I stay fresh
Found up high, not in the sky
Would that be a lilly?

yes it would, specifically one of the ones atop ruxus mountain :-)
Two grandmothers, with their two granddaughters;
Two husbands, with their two wives;
Two fathers, with their two daughters;
Two mothers, with their two sons;
Two maidens, with their two mothers;
Two sisters, with their two brothers;
Yet only six in all lie buried here;
All born legitimate, How can this be?

are some of them standing around the graves, alive?
Well, the fathers' daughters would be the grandmothers' granddaughters. And the fathers themselves would be the grandmothers's sons,
Grandma A...Grandma B
Father A....Father B
Daughter A..Daughter B
Now, if I'm right, Father B married Grandma A and Father A married Grandma B so Daughter A is Grandma B's daughter and Daughter B is Grandma A's daughter.
Now, assuming Father A and B are brothers, I have no idea how the sisters come into it. Or, if the two grandmas are sisters, I can't imagine they'd both marry brothers (though legal, since in-laws are not blood related).

Actually, if Father B is Grandma B's son by a first marriage, and Father A then marries Grandma B, Father A is Father B's step-father. By the same token, in your scenario, Father B is also Father A's step-father. But in this instance, I believe they are considered step-brothers.
Exploring is a necessary skill, and its not like death is fatal. At least, not for the gifted.
oh good grief, what a gnarled family tree!! are the fathers then their own grandpas?
No, according to the way I wrote it up, they'd be each other's stepfathers AND stepsons.

Two widows each had a son, and each widow married the son of the other and then each had a daughter
ps. As a side note I could not make this stuff up this happend real life I read it in a news articel. Then made the post based off of the answer. They posted a bigger then normal story about it when the last daughter was dead.

here's an attempt on my part to be crafty...
on four legs helping two legs make one leg
a pair of crutches?
you can't cast a play in hell and expect angels as actors

A dog helping a man make a leg of ham?
Or a pig, being the one the man turns into a leg of ham. XD

Sounds like a woodworking bench to me.
One leg would be a staff, perhaps?

I am all, yet I am none. It all depends on how you see me.
