I fall but I never get back up I'm unique but I'm not a fingerprint I'm sometimes part of a ball but I'm not leather If I get warm enough I go away but I'm not a winter wardrobe I'm sometimes part of a man but I don't have any skin What could I be?

Why this works

This riddle cleverly plays with various characteristics of snow. When it says "I fall but I never get back up," it refers to how snowflakes fall from the sky during a snowfall and do not return to the air. The phrase "I'm unique but I'm not a fingerprint" highlights that each snowflake has a distinct crystal structure, much like fingerprints do for humans. The line "I'm sometimes part of a ball but I'm not leather" alludes to snowballs, which are made of packed snow rather than leather. When it states, "If I get warm enough I go away but I'm not a winter wardrobe," it's describing how snow melts when temperatures rise. Finally, "I'm sometimes part of a man but I don't have any skin" refers to the common phrase "snowman," where snow is used to create the figure, but obviously, snow itself has no skin. Each clue layers on the concept of snow, making it a delightful and multi-faceted answer!
