Xandra

Xandra broke my heart that day
xanthous hair was shoulder length
xenodochy was her way
xylopolist was my game
xeric that we are apart
xaenocephalus whispers her name
Xandra stole my heart

    This looks interesting...But I haven't a clue? It sounds like a snappy little jingle... I'm not going for the "book" as I'm already so far behind, I think I'm leading.. [round-e-round the race track I go...]

    Wow! X?? A challenge indeed, and well met! Deserved more than Bronze, I would say, just for knowing those words!

    This write was amazing. I don't think I could think of that many words beginning with the letter X. Would probably really hurt my brain if I tried. Congrats on the trophy, but I think this one was worthy of gold.

    Well, this is pretty cool. I could only find that xaenocephalus was a bird. IT works. You did a great job. Very unique. Thank you for sharing in the contest.

    Only you can use the letter "X" to produce such a lovely poem. I must admit that I have to turn to my dictionary
    I'm in awe of your brilliant usage of vocabulary*sigh*
    Great write as always hun
    Wish you the best in the contest!

    Take care

    Interesting

    Are those real words? guess I'll have to look them up to know the meaning. Though I think I get the jist of it, that someone is in pain over someone leaving. extraordinary work if they are all words that start with X must of been pretty hard.

      LOL

      Of course they’re all real words; don’t you use them every day? Except maybe the yellow bird.

    I didn't know there were that many words that begin with "X" Leave it to you to find them and use them in such a wonderful read!!!

    Great job on this one!

    Best of luck in this contest, though I don't think you will need luck.

    and love
