Today’s Jumble haiku:
“Tremendous (Health Food!)”
The ol’ gourd throbs, as
I munch dried sprouts and emerge
cleansed from the tussle.

People living by swamps must trek through mud
in their daily routines. Choosing this area is stupid
for folk seeking space. Sinkholes squeeze the room; it
is way too spare! For seeking dry air, it’s far too h…..!

The bouncer stopped him, looking tired.
"Hey, chum, I.D. required."
Sam looked surprised,
Tried puppy-dog eyes,
But at a hundred-one, to the mosh pit he was undesired!

Peter grew pumpkins of enormous size!
Cinderella's coach was his enterprise!
He bragged of his drinking gourd, his prize,
Now the Big Dipper, up in the skies!
A zucchini got him in trouble one day.
It grew so huge it blocked the hiway!
He had to tussle it into the bay,
Where it floated out to a major seaway!
His pumpkins grew at such a pace,
One caught his wife before away she could race!
She had to munch till she hated the taste,
But at last emerged, her spouse to face!
"You grow your vines like a bean-pole tree,
They're tremendous, till a gourd gourged on me!
FLN- thanks for your comments OMK.I need to do some spring cleaning, but too much else going on.
I may not get back here until later again today.
Yes, I noted your TWILL usage and smiled, thinking of the Shakespearean influence.
Individual identities become blurred in a crowd, as passions rise and mob mentality takes over.
Me-Us Trend
The hue ‘mid the tussle
Made the crowd rustle.
No one took a munch
While focusing on the punch.
Girding for the fight
A victor emerged in sight.
MIGHT was my 3rd guess on today's

"Gourd Matured"
When Ted through the forest toured,
he discovered a giant gourd.
He decided to serve it for lunch
and enjoyed every munch.
So he now decided to splurge
and many gourds from his hobby did emerge.
It was often a bit of a tussle
but in the end many gourds he did hustle.
His efforts were a tremendous success
and Ted his giant gourd does now bless.
Much admiration for Owen's gourdian riff on "Peter Peter Pumpkin-Eater."
The Master still sets the standard.
Misty's Ted seems to have found a gourd that led him from a hobby to a profitable business. She shows us what 2-1/2 stanzas of poetry can accomplish!
Not to be outdone, CEh offers her take on how a crowd can morph into its own champion--surely the most dramatic arc today.
Meanwhile, on the Wordle side, Wilbur & everybody beat the adjusted Par.
(My starter was ADIEU, an old favorite.)

Ha! I took a different title from the J answer, and that sent me away from the Gourd theme that everyone else used. (In fact, I had to morph the gourd into gird.)
But I do love all your references to zucchini, pumpkins. And OMK’s inference perhaps, that health food is not always the most delicious.
Owen- wonderful hiding of the W in your second line.
WC- we feel like Florida here today - 31C with a Heat Warning.
Woohoo! Woohoo! Don't quite know how I did it, but I played around with your various hints, and once again, it worked! Thank you, thank you, thank you all for this great gift:

You've made my day!
OMK, forgot to thank you for your kind words on my verse. I always love your morning offerings as you know, and they were a treat today.
Loved your complex verse, Owen, and hope the wife survived that gourd gourge.
CanadianEh!, hope everyone survived your fun tussle.
Wilbur, your hint was one of the really helpful ones--thanks for that too.
CEh! ~ I admired your take on "gourd/girding." But you weren't different from the "theme that everyone else used." Take another look at the haiku, and I think you'll find another outlier comrade.
My small verse features the item as a throbbing "gourd" = aching "head."
Misty ~ After two days of trying to understand how to survive the UCI email fiasco, I finally phoned the help desk at 949-824-2222. After clicking on their voice menu (for the retiree option) and waiting an interminable length of time I got help.
(I was lucky in that I had already followed the onscreen information in establishing the "DUO" security sign-on. If you don't already have that, they make you do it first. Maybe if you don't understand how to do it they will talk you through it too).)
Then I had a patient guy talk me through each step to establish Microsoft 365 as my new server.
It wasn't easy, and he needed to be patient. But I now have access to all my UCI email.
