11 of 12 given Wordle words:

crack, glimpse loom creep curl 

light, grip, whirl spin wonder lord

at the crack of dawn glimpse

of home loomed ahead

emerging through the branches

as a descendant of a wild predator

they looked askance at all the furore

of a journey by a river boat

with intent to capture their hearts

born at the zoo they were adorable

they just creep slowly to his feet

to curl in a light grip of his warm hands

their thoughts seem numbed in idleness

but they still advanced forward 

often whirled in a spin to wonder 

how the good Lord had favoured them

but a sudden gust of wind 

with force rocked the boat 

it tweaked  their focus and off they jumped

even though there was fondness for him

to be free in the wilderness 

was a better alternative

how he gnashed  his teeth with fury

how silly to have left them untied

was there a reason to curse and rant

for forgetfulness endured

was a grim lesson
