Verse Love 26: Day 19 Thank Your Wardle

Today's Verse Love Host, Stefani Boutelier, like one of my own former students, is focused on the power of games and games in education. Today we are asked to write about games (board games, puzzles, role-playing games, game shows, sporting events, riddles, etc.) and encouraged to consider a Wordle-inspired poem or a double nonet (1-9+9-1) or a new for me 4X4 similar to Connections with four words, four syllables, up to four stanzas, or just four lines. 

Below is my Wordle Gift. a thank you for a game I started as week two of the Pandemic began. This poem, full of numbers, is a 4x4 with 4 stanzas, with 4 lines because most of the time, I solve my puzzle in 4!

On day seven,

Hesitantly,

Solved my very first

Game in four tries

In six around

The sun, perhaps

Three not solved in

Five or less, once

One, never two,

Once late and she

Called to check if

Alive, forgot?

We compare our

Scores, frustrations,

Thank you Wardle

Daily, Wordle!
