The Word for Wednesday challenge started a long time ago. Now it has turned into a movable feast with Elephant's Child as our coordinator; and the Words are provided by a number of people.
The prompts for September are provided by Sean Jeating and can be found @ Elephant's Child.
The general idea of this challenge is to make us write. Poems, stories, subtitles, tales, jokes, haiku, crosswords, puns, ... you're the boss.
Use all Words, some Words, one Word, or even none of them if that makes your creative juices flow. Anything goes, only please nothing rude or vulgar.
It is also a challenge, where the old saying "The more the merrier" holds true.
So Please, remember to follow the links, go back and read other peoples' stories. And please leave a comment after reading. Challenges like this one thrives on interaction, feedback and encouragement. And we ALL need encouragement.

I have been away for much of today, and I really like the Words - I want to use them for a chapter in Susan's story so no story today, I hope to have better time for writing later. But I am going to use a few of the Words for some fun. I'll probably re-use them for the Susan-story.
Today I solved the Wordle. I felt not proud and very proud at the same time.
Not proud because I used five guesses, and in later guesses I used letters, I knew were not in the word, and I put some letters where I knew they were not supposed to go.
It looked like this:
But I was very proud that I knew the word that is today's solution. I learned it years and years ago, and it is in no way similar to its Danish counterpart and it is not a word I use every day either.
Looking at today's Word it hit me that those of them containing five letters (Hazel - Rapid - White) could be a credible way of solving today's Wordle. I added Words as well, but could have done without.
Again, if you intend to solve today's Wordle, and you still can do so in your timezone, scroll down no further.
This might be a mock-up, but the solution is the right one.

I have never played Wordle (it intimidates me).
SvarSletThank you for sharing your fun - and I look forward to your next use of the prompts Sean gave us.
Intimidating was not the word I'd choose to describe Wordle. It's just letters, and in English even. And nobody will ever know if you try and fail, or try and suceed with flying colours unless you chose to share. Which I do, often.
SletI hope to live up to your expectations.
I don't do wordle either, just can't figure it out. But I manage the puzzles in the newspaper daily, probably they aren't all that difficult anyway.
SvarSletWordle is a different puzzle, jotting down ideas on a piece of paper seems to help me immensely, as you can see from my next reply ;) I find crossword puzzles way harder ;)

Very nicely done. Sorry I'm late to the party, I'm trying hard to catch up to everyone.
SvarSletThank you ... for another round of catch-ups you do not ned to comment on all posts since your last comment, one or two is fine ;)
