FIVE RHYMING RIDDLES

1)
I'm a five-letter word,
And I like to share;
Take four of my letters,
I really don't care.
I sound the same,
Now is that fair?

2)
Tell me, ladies, if you can,
Who is that most favored man,
Who, though he has married many a wife,
May still live single all his life?

3)
I call at every home,
I walk down very street;
Daily I make my way along,
Though we may or may not meet.

4)
I have wings  yet never fly,
I have sails yet never go;
I obey the wind-swept sky,
Yet forever stand just so.

5)
Three-fourths of me are part of a play,
Three-fourths a bed for a man;
Three-fourths have legs that cannot stray,
Three-fourths have legs that can.

HINT #5:
I have a back without a spine,
Two arms without bones are mine.
