What road goes back to home?
How much farther must you roam?
Life's a trek,
So what the heck,
What's buried in the future's foam?
Todayโs Jumble haiku:
Everything is relative, as attested to in a song, entitled:
โSan Francisco, April 18, 1906โ
A ballad of that
awful event* adjoining
the earthquake & fire.

* What could it have beenโso vile, damnโd bad?
A little medical knowledge is useful today.

Ballad of dโWell One
We had no idea or tally
Of attendance at the event,
A lawful convening of those
Who had joined the herd
And received the jab
With the protection it conferred.
OMK- your vowel-rich starter was not the best help to the W solve today.
Iโll save the others from needing to LIU re your excellent haiku. This Canadian was not familiar with that disaster.
โ At 5:12 a.m. on April 18, 1906, a magnitude 8.3 (Richter Scale) earthquake struck San Francisco.With thousands of un-reinforced brick buildings and closely-spaced wooden Victorian dwellings, the city was poorly prepared for the quake. Collapsed buildings, broken chimneys, and a water shortage due to broken mains, led to several large fires that soon coalesced into a citywide holocaust. The fire raged for three days, sweeping over nearly a quarter of the city, including the entire downtown area. Over 3,000 people are estimated to have died as a result of the disaster.โ (Library of Congress)
Owen- I found that Wordle. Camouflaged and transposed well.
"Bad Ballad"
The event was perfectly lawful
but we feared it would be awful.
While we were enjoying a salad,
the singer began to adjoin
with her truly awful ballad
that gave us a pain in the groin.
And so, it did us totally stun
when the host called it "a job well done."
P.S. It's my 78th birthday today--I didn't deserve a "Bad Ballad."
โHappy Birthday to You,โ dear Misty!
No, you donโt deserve a Bad one, which may be why yours of today is a delight!!
I hope you are doing something special today, to treat yourself for another milestone in the inevitable and invariable derby of life.
May your Christmas Eveโs Eve birthday be even with the best youโve ever had!

CEh! ~ I chose the other Bot today, then tried to quit, but that only made things better.
In the end, we both birdied. This is from the heart.
~ OMK .
Happy Birthday Misty.
I LOLed at you โpain in the groinโ to rhyme with adjoin. Your job was well done even if the ballad was awful. I trust that your birthday music will be much sweeter.
You persevered and got that Wordle. Good work.
What ever could be your 4th Wordle try? SORTA? Admittedly, AORTA was a reach. Perfect good word, though
I hope you had a deservedly happy birthday. Both in Austria in 1944, a dark time.

I meant BORN of course
Owen writes in resignation of the trek of life,
while CEh reminds us how to make things bearable for our โherd.โ
Both show wisdom in very few wordsโฆ.
