What get's wetter and wetter the more it dries?
Weight in my belly, Trees on my back, Nails in my ribs, Feet do I lack. What am I?
I have hands that wave at you, Though I never say goodbye. It's cool for you to be with me, Especially when I say, "HI." What am I?

The middle one is actually a wooden ship, with masts.
I think this is a riddle of the like that was very much exercised by many cultures- see Gollum's and Bilbo's riddles in "The Hobbit". Tolkien used Anglo-Saxon riddles.
