For he had strayed, with lessons to learn.

the 12 given Wordle words:
boy, naked, pole, punishment, late, older, 
shower, smiling, touch, faded, ritual, shining

A shout in the dark and a tale so bold
Of a boy, once carefree, his story unfolds
Naked he stood, innocence on display,
Beside a wooden pole, there to stay

A punishment awaited, cruel and stern,
For he had strayed, with lessons to learn.
The hour grew late, the moon older awhile,
As destiny's shower played, him with a smile

With touch of class, his scars slowly faded,
Ritual of strength awakened, long ago jaded.
Shining in that quiet moment, where shadows blend,
He found solace within, his ego on the mend.

  3. We all have to go through some hard times before better times come to us. One must not take the good times for granted.
    Loved the verse Hank well written as usual.
