If you have an idea for the poem first and try to fit the words into your idea poem, the poem becomes a very long narrative as mine has, trying to explain all the words. I won't do it the second way the next time. Promise. I am new at these Wordles but I think I am discovering that If you use the words to make a poem, the poem will be shorter and more expressive.

I adored the last one... my heart has deepened through writing it... and there is a great comfort in coming back to the page even after such a momentous writing experience. I am especially loving the "multitude, plum, husk" trifecta. :-) It is so grounding to find another prompt.
