The opening poem contains all the words (or variations of them) from today's Jumble.
Comments are welcomed!
Do not explicitly reveal any of the actual answer words until after closing time, but embedding them surreptitiously in comment sentences is encouraged.
Her blind date was a foreigner, from very far away.
ReplyDeleteWhen she asked from where, he said from in the Milky Way.
He had a funny looking roadster, jazzed up to the max,
She calmed her qualms until he hit the gas and they made tracks!
She'd thought he was a joker, a sort of dashing, jaunty guy,
But now she found herself star gazing from the sky!
He took her on a wondrous jaunt around the zodiac,
Dashing from star to star, and following a comet back!
The roadster, it was marvelous, an agile little zipper,
Spiraling around the handle of the Little Dipper!
He got her home a wee bit late, one A.M. was past,
But she assured him with a kiss, the date had been a blast!
A neat tribute to a happy, adventurous, and high ol' time of a first date, Owen!
ReplyDeleteI hope all's back to normal for you. Wishing you well for the brand new week...

Yes, I think your poem is not only imaginative but fun and sounds so cheerful and lighthearted. I hope it truly reflects your state of mind, Owen.
ReplyDeleteThe jumble was Monday easy for me; quite a contrast with yesterday's two. And I enjoyed the pun.
Thank goodness I'm able to post this morning. When I wanted to comment on something yesterday afternoon, a thing came on that told me I had to log in! I tried a second and third time, but each required a log in. I worried that I'd lose my chance to do Jumble posts which would be a real loss for me. So it's a blessing to have it work this morning.
ReplyDeleteThe first and third Jumble words worried me for a minute, but I got them and the solution was an easy and fun solve. And your poem is a total delight this morning, Owen--so imaginative and clever--I loved it. And, of course, a neat cartoon with all those instruments in the back, and the CBs on the piano. A great Jumble morning all around. Just hope I don't have trouble checking in later.
Just checking to see if I can still check in--Yay! All seems okay today and I'll keep my fingers crossed that the problem is over.
ReplyDeleteA Scrabble delight , full of 10 and 8 pointers. Love to see a Q but what to do with those Z's. Is a serial napper a DOZIAC? Shades of my OCS days.
ReplyDeleteCount Basie was our College performer at graduation.
That was a fun story in verse Owen
