Professor B Pear found it difficult to choose a winner because of the very high standard(hmmmpf smirk) of the contestants.The deciding factor was the winning contestant's innovative approach to linguistics by creating a new language called Franglish ( a combination of French and English.)
So congratulations to Doctor FTSE (affectionately known as Footsie) who will now be a contestant in the semi finals which will take place in the 5th week of the competition.
Doctor FTSE spends his spare time searching for and collecting words that are scattered over the moors of northern England.
Here is the wordle for this week:
tone, crespuscular, praise, exquisite, puff, invoke, contralto, allure, mousse, night
So, goodluck everyone and happy wordling!
Hello Rallentanda! That's wonderful news. Thank you and Professor Pear for conferring this honour . . (eh??)
ReplyDelete"I am a poet
but did not knowet"
Or something.
I was trying to write the whole poem in French except for the wurdle words, but École Francais deserted me.
Looking forward to another poem from you this week Footsie.I hope you are not going to sit back and rest on your laurels.

Here's mine.
ReplyDeletePandora's exquisite crespucular
tinged contralto tone invoked praise
She had the voice for 'Queen of the Night'
but in spite of her allure and talent
she could not compete with her sister's chocolate mousse and puff pastry
Humor deserts me. Could I possibly compete with chocolate mousse and puff pastry? Nah.

inhale the night
crepuscular wings thrash the window screen
exquisite irregularity
a puff of pale mousse scents two creased fingertips.
mango and a tone of bitter tea
invoke the echo of allure.
hum your hoarse contralto to the mirror
praise your image with a sleepy smile
This is so good Barbara. Lovely.
ReplyDeleteSuch pretty words--I didn't have the heart to hurt them. Only, maybe, crepuscular, which makes me think of pus and crepe paper more than darkling hours
ReplyDeleteThe words thank you Barbra Seville.
ReplyDeleteThe thickening indigo mousse and one
ReplyDeleteexquisite golden puff invoke the allure
of twilight’s crepuscular tone.
Contralto geese praise the
heavens as God’s hand conducts
the night.
