I seem to dance, I am not a dancer



I may pop, I am not a bubble



I may even roar, I am not a lion



I am high on fever, I am not a patient



I can force you to shut your eyes, I am not sleep



I can give you life, I am not your Creator



I can take it too, I am not your Destroyer



I am made of three, but alone none won't work




Who am I? And who make me?

          My first thought was that you are




          Fire




          I seem to dance, I am not a dancer




          Flames seem to dance




          I may pop, I am not a bubble




          Fire crackles and pops




          I may even roar, I am not a lion




          Roaring bonfires




          I am high on fever, I am not a patient




          Definitely high temperature




          I can force you to shut your eyes, I am not sleep




          You often have to close your eyes approaching a large fire - or smoke might make you close your eyes near even a smaller fire




          I can give you life, I am not your Creator




          Some tree seeds actually need fire to germinate (and eg forest fires are often needed to clear room for new growth). Humans maybe don’t strictly need fire to live, at least in some climates, but it certainly makes life in more northern latitudes possible.




          I can take it too, I am not your Destroyer




          People perish in fire with unfortunate regularity.




          I am made of three, but alone none won't work




          Provided by @Rimply in a now-deleted comment: fire requires heat, fuel, and an oxidizing agent. Take away any one of the three and there is no fire. Certainly no single one of the three alone would suffice either. (See Fire Triangle for more info.)

            You are probably




            water




            I seem to dance, I am not a dancer




            Dancing water in a river.




            I may pop, I am not a bubble




            Again the noise of a river??




            I may even roar, I am not a lion




            Roaring waterfalls.




            I am high on fever, I am not a patient




            High waves?




            I can force you to shut your eyes, I am not sleep




            Spraying water at someone would make them close their eyes.




            I can give you life, I am not your Creator




            Water is needed for life.




            I can take it too, I am not your Destroyer




            Drowning.




            I am made of three, but alone none won't work




            Water is H2O - made of 2 hydrogen and 1 oxygen, which alone would be useless.

              That's a good (and too fast) answer, but could you explain why do high waves have fever? Btw I was thinking of another answer.

                    You are probably




                    water




                    I seem to dance, I am not a dancer




                    Dancing water in a river.




                    I may pop, I am not a bubble




                    Again the noise of a river??




                    I may even roar, I am not a lion




                    Roaring waterfalls.




                    I am high on fever, I am not a patient




                    High waves?




                    I can force you to shut your eyes, I am not sleep




                    Spraying water at someone would make them close their eyes.




                    I can give you life, I am not your Creator




                    Water is needed for life.




                    I can take it too, I am not your Destroyer




                    Drowning.




                    I am made of three, but alone none won't work




                    Water is H2O - made of 2 hydrogen and 1 oxygen, which alone would be useless.

                      That's a good (and too fast) answer, but could you explain why do high waves have fever? Btw I was thinking of another answer.

                    Knooppunt Holsloot Kenmerken Wegen A37 × N34 Type knooppunt klaverblad Portaal     Verkeer & Vervoer Knooppunt Holsloot is een verkeersknooppunt op de kruising van de autosnelweg A37 en de N34 in Drenthe, tussen Emmen en Coevorden. Oorspronkelijk was deze aansluiting een afritconstructie van het type Haarlemmermeeraansluiting, zoals bij Knooppunt Hooipolder. Sinds 2002 is het knooppunt omgebouwd tot een volledig klaverblad. Als noviteit werd hier voor het eerst gebruikgemaakt van dimbare verlichting in plaats van de normale vaste tijden waarop de verlichting aan en uit gaat, wat een grote kostenbesparing opleverde. [1] Dat Holsloot als volwaardig knooppunt is uitgevoerd, waarbij alle verkeersstromen en afbuigingen ononderbroken kunnen doorgaan, is uitzonderlijk. Het betreft hier namelijk een aansluiting tussen een autosnelweg en niet-snelweg. Een vergelijkbare situatie treft men nabij Hoensbroek bij het knooppunt Ten Esschen.     Aa

                    Een afbeelding van de Gregoriusmis uit een getijdenboek gemaakt in de zuidelijke Nederlanden tussen 1500 en 1525 Gregoriusmis, Meester van het Akense Altaar, ca. 1500-1525. Collectie Museum Catharijneconvent De Gregoriusmis of de Mis van Sint Gregorius is een motief in katholieke kunst, dat het eerst verscheen in de late Middeleeuwen en dat nog steeds werd gebruikt tijdens de contrareformatie. Paus Gregorius I (ca. 540-604) is afgebeeld, de H. Mis opdragend, terwijl Christus als de Man van Smarten verschijnt op het altaar dat voor Sint Gregorius staat. Volgens de legende had St. Gregorius gebeden om een teken voor een betwijfelaar van de transsubstantiatieleer, waarop de lijdende Christus tijdens het opdragen van de Mis verscheen om hem te overtuigen en waarbij zijn bloed in de altaarkelk liep. Vaak zijn ook de passiewerktuigen afgebeeld. Zie de categorie Mass of Saint Gregory van Wikimedia Commons voor mediabestanden over dit onderwerp. This page is onl
