Joseph May Poet Free verse

Games People Play

Each numbered square gives a clue
 For a puzzle with words across and down
Find the words that fit within
 Select the wrong word
 And things will go awry
 Get all right and its a win!

 Two warriors enter the court
 Where a battle soon begins
 Their rackets smash the ball with force
 As they try to win their sets
 Win enough sets and the war is won

Vijay Pandit October 16, 2020 at 5:30 AM So well illustrated Joseph--nicely executed --though this is so hard to explain in few words.

Joanna Daniel October 16, 2020 at 4:42 AM Crosswords and tennis, two of my favourite games, Joseph, nicely put:)

Brandy Nicole October 15, 2020 at 9:08 PM Hmm, I think it's both, in games people play. In poetry, it is Mental and Physical. It is for me, as each emotion I can feel so deeply, and then- it sweeps over my being. Sometimes, it's the other way around. Nicely written Joseph. I'm smiling. Both a physical and mental reaction. :) Brandy
