Good morning and welcome to Day 5 pf the A to Z challenge. This year I chose 3 themes for the challenge: Limericks, MLB sluggers in my lifetime, and A to Z wordles. For more information about these themes click here.
Part I: A to Z Limericks
Today is my first day writing a limerick within 24 hours of posting it for the challenge. I have been listening recently to the voyage of the Dawn Treader and The Silver Chair by C.S. Lewis so I'll attempt a limerick about one of the principal characters of both books.
There once was a fellow name Scrubb
An egotistical bully this bub
inside and outside a dragon
until he met Aslan
now he's not as useless as he was.
Part II: A to Z Homerun hitters of my lifetime
Jim Edmonds played Major League Baseball from 1993 to 2010 . He hit his first 121 homers with the Anaheim Angels from 1993 to 1999. It was after he left Anaheim ,in the period between 2000 and 2010 that he was his most prolific at the plate. During that time he hit 272 of his 393 career home runs. (241 with the St. Louis Cardinals, 19 for the Chicago Cubs, 8 for the Milwaukee Brewers, 3 for the Cincinnati Reds and 1 for the San Diego Padres.)
Part III: Wordle Starting Words from A to Z
Note: Correct letters in the correct places will be shown in bold. Correct letters in incorrect places will be shown in italics.
On March 5th I started my wordle by guessing equal.
E Q U A L this got me the e but in the wrong position. I then guessed ...
R E I G N that guess neeted me 4 correct letters with I in the right place. my next guess
B R I N E was correct in 3 guesses!
That's all for today. for more A to Z challenge click here.

You have a cute theme for the challenge! I haven't written a limerick in a long time but the one you wrote to share for E was a good one! I don't follow baseball so I would be totally lost with the home run stats but neat that you keep up with all that! And I just heard of Wordle a few months ago but have yet gone to play. I'm afraid I'll become addicted to it and I don't have any more time for anything else with social media, etc. Again, thanks for visiting my blog and good luck with the rest of the challenge!

Interesting. I too do wordle. Good luck with the challenge,
Your limerick reminded me of the Narnia movie series that had a majestic portrayal of Aslan !

Thank you for visiting my blog and for your comments.
This is an interesting topic for the Challenge.
The limerick was good!
I too play Wordle. A few occasions I haven't been able to guess the right word. Mostly I get in the 4th attempt.
