the 10 of 12 given words:
risk contain catastrophe places scan 
silently peace cases stories created 

under normal jungle capture
it is a risk to try to contain the
the catastrophe of provoking the 
King who places importance to 
social distancing 

the King is now forced to scan 
silently a newly minted SOP to 
maintain peace and harmony
without a show of power and 
influence 

there are cases of stories of how 
meekly they succumb to mothers 
especially today 

how so confident Mother Duck in 
accompanying her little ducklings
who created an unbroken line
across the divide under the watchful 
eyes of the King who is pandemically
compromised

Note: Sunday, 9 May 
is Mother's Day in the US

  3. Nice muse interpretation even if you did know all those big words (we both knew them already). Now I'm wondering what the other two were.
    Good Job!!!
