Today: The Sunday Whirl “Wordle”

The Sunday Whirl invites writers to write a poem or short prose using some or all of the “wordle’s” 12 words. This week it is:

wordle words

Today

Out of millions of days,
I have this one
to grab by the throat,
to hike up its cheeky side,
to stare it straight in the eye.

I have this one,
of all the millions,
to take my best shot,
to whisper in its ear,
with honor, that this day,
this one day, will be
one hell of a piece of work.

This day,
manufactured by something
greater than myself,
no longer eclipsed by the moon,
will illume my lackluster soul,

and,

I bow now before it ready to begin anew

please, do not mistake wisdom for gratitude or the desire to realize my place.
But if wisdom it is for you, so be it. Thanks, Randy

How few of us think this way. Rather than an opportunity each day is seen by many as but the daily grind.

even a daily grind makes coarse salt palatable…
I say, grind away.

In the inimitable voice of Mae West: A good grind is hard to find.

Thanks for stopping by and chatting, oldegg. I’m happy to hear from you. I always see your “likes”. Thanks,

Randy
