Wordle: Norm


image

Concealed within is a second message
So bless you for sticking with me
Norm, it seems is everywhere
Locked in fun or misery
Red-faced from a race
Or blue from the cold
Popularity grabbed by the masses
Burning questions
Stump or flow
Depending on the answers
Norm wants change
Or so it seems, so puts it to a vote
But with change Norm isn’t Norm
It’s the differences to note

    A nice paradox – Norm wants change, but with change isn’t the same Norm. I like it a lot!

      Thanks, Uttley. So with change, Norm is never really the norm! πŸ˜€

        Know who often raises issues which knock the norm for a loop? The fool. The jester. That trickster is forever making us reevaluate what ‘normal’ means!

              Not very much passes me by. (I tell myself, usually after walking into a lamppost)

    Very true – we can soon change absorb to the norm.. unlikely to the inevitable.. made me think of Cheers too… and everybody welcomes him with a cheer and a beer (ps thank you for your comment..so sorry i had a trigger happy digit and deleted it by mistake..have copied it but don’t think your webpage link shows)

    Interesting, Norm changes all the time and is never the same, and then depending on his/ hers perspective, what is Norm never is norm.

      But just ‘coz they’re doing it, is it really the norm? You can go round and round with what’s normal… maybe that’s the norm, Prenin! πŸ˜€

    Great couple of hounds … pair o’ dogs! A quirky mind direction.

    And if Norm changes to Norman Albert, he would still be Norm Al?

      He would indeed, Col, but he wouldn’t be the same Norm.

    Good one. I did have to read it twice, but only because the brain is a little tired. It’s like “The only constant is change”.

      Or put another way, Shree, change is the norm… πŸ˜‰

    Norm is being acceptable. As long as it is, then it is considered within the norm!
