Addicted

When I heard of the game Wordle, I became interested, 

when I learned how to play the game, I became addicted. 

Being an early riser, I found Wordle waiting and anxious to play, 

for it is challenging, exciting and a great way to begin each day. 

My brain is loving this game for it has been rejuvenated, 

by finding the word from letters that have been indicated. 

It can be time consuming and often difficult to figure out, 

but when you find the winning word, there comes a hearty shout. 

In my thinking, Wordle is the best addiction to acquire, 

it is free, activates your brain and a game to aspire.
