We Wordle #16: All the 39
words are used:
leg squat insect spring starving
truth heart air radio laugh yes but
when licking spongy cat gentle
wallow wind blue tree draw
picture silver knot weight corner
life small kids rides heart wails
party magic rust sky silent forever
Not able to squat, standing
on my legs truth be told and no
insect is to spring a surprise
Starving my heart out with
the radio blaring on the air
it is a laugh, yes!
But when it comes to licking
and 'milking' it is as spongy and gentle
as to a cat to wallow in the wind
Try to draw a picture so blue of a tree
a silver mare, my mom and small
kids at a party raucous in a corner
Knotted life rides a weight in the
heart to wails of waifs enjoying
the magic of breast feeding
Not here as the quiet rustic sky above
bears witness to a peaceful and silent mode
for feeding time with Mom is a joy forever

Beautiful and the way it should be for every animal, safe and nurtured. Cool form.
ReplyDeleteSuch peace and beauty in your words...as Sherry spoke...too bad every animal can't feel safe and nurtured.
ReplyDeleteIt feels as if these words just fell so gently into place.
