Wordle: Spikes and Skulls


โ€˜Though born to mock with smug grin
And no hope to get truth through corrupt skull
Note calls of โ€œFire!โ€ (liar)
Spikes of honour catch the eye within the memo
Delete? Too early to say

Itโ€™s a bit of a mish-mash, todayโ€™s post.

Debbieโ€™s word for One Word Sunday over on Travel With Intent is โ€˜Skullโ€™ and I know for a fact that I donโ€™t own any photos of skulls, real or otherwise, and I canโ€™t see any reason of me stumbling across one for a photo opportunity anytime soon. So, I had a photo lined up of Prickles, a tiny tiny dragonfly I once knew, for Beckyโ€™s #SpikySquare March challenge, over on The Life of B. Aha! I thought, as I squinted, and focussed on the space behind my computer screen whilst looking at Pricklesโ€™ head; I can almost see a skull there.

The link was made. I very often go out on a limb with these photo challengesโ€ฆ today Iโ€™m going out on a head.

I then included the words โ€˜Skullโ€™ and โ€˜Spikeโ€™ into Brendaโ€™s list, from The Sunday Whirl, and came up with the five lines above. Iโ€™m sure theyโ€™ll make sense in the Universe somewhere. Limbs, spiky legs and wings, and heads are all very useful at times.

    A great mish mash. And I’m pleased to see the insect’s skull is whole not mashed!
