WORDLE #120

For Sunday Whirl: Shadow, Bread, Salt, Sense, Breath, Sends, Head, Gravity, Plans, Thread, Shoes, Landscape.

FORETHOUGHT


You think...

Without a shadow of doubt
Baking bread to earn your salt
Makes perfect sense...

But does it...?

Deep breath...

Have a second thought...

This sends signals to your head...

Then you think...

Blame gravity for the way
In which even best laid plans
Fall down hard and lose their thread...

Now you think...

No shoes required to walk this landscape...!

  6. All that work and then it doesn't rise? One of the reasons I don't bake bread anymore. And yes, going barefoot is the very best. This was a delight to read.

  8. That deep breath lifts you up like the rising bread so certainly no shoes are needed with such inspiration.
