I Am Addicted To Word Games

I am addicted
Addicted to word games
Playing others online
Who are also addicted
To word games

My mother loved
Playing Dabble
Her favorite word game
She had to beat the clock
And makes seven words
Out of thirty-two letters

Her legacy to me is
Keep your mind active
Learn something new every day
She was not an addict
But she did read encyclopedias for “fun”.

I remember how thrilled she was about new words
Which might explain me a bit.
