  "textContent": "_Saturday, February 21, 2026_\n\nGood morning, The Wonder...fell Way.\n\nWhen tomorrow becomes today and starts to play anew, again, anew.\n\nWhat's new?\n\nWinter waves goodbye with a snowfall or two. The view out every window is a Baker's display, icing on every tree and fencepost.\n\nDawn. Lights on. Snow sugar crystals shine back the sunrise.\n\nIt's not optimism; it's observation.\n\nThe certain ways of poets and artists of seeing The World have laid quiet for so long.\n\nThe consequences of which are our nightly News.\n\nComedians do their best to lighten up the language of what's going on.\n\nBut it's not enough.\n\nThere's more to funny than being funny.\n\nThere's laughter funny and there's remarkable curious funny.\n\nThe latter is in the realm of Wonder.\n\nO/\n\nIrony is the realm of poets.\n\nWhat's ironic can be worth laughing about, so poets and comedians get along well as a rule.\n\nIrony is the display of the power of language. That words have to have agreed upon definitions to be of any value, yet they can mean something more, or something else, is the ultimate act of irony.\n\nWe grow; we evolve and so does our language. That we depend so much on something for our survival that is transitory by design is irony manifest.\n\nAcademic words at dawn... the sunrise loves to shine on cake frosted trees.\n\nI'd rather write about deserts than the function of Irony, but my craft is an endangered species due to the misunderstanding of its necessity.\n\nEvery single word hopes to mean more.\n\nDid you know?\n\nLove is always looking for definition.\n\nThat one you're familiar with.\n\nBut all language is like that; it grows with the times.\n\nEven Scientific theories adapt and grow.\n\nNewton lives in a new town since Einstein came around. New words gave new definitions to old words and changed his zip code.\n\nThe work of poets. What both Newton and Einstein did was to use the language of Science to commit acts of Poetry. E = mc2 is using old words to shape and share a new dream. Also known as: Poetry.\n\nThe practical use of poetry is easy to see in a word like Freedom.\n\nOur agreed upon definition needs an update.\n\nAt least a reminder.\n\nGoing to enjoy the view.\n\nTake care and make a wonderful day.\n\n#### ~ Wynn ~\n\nBrought to you by the emoji of the day: ❄️ __snowflake__\n\nPic Prompt: __Create a stick figure pen and ink image of a person looking out a window at sunrise watching the snowfall while holding a cupcake.__\n\nArchaic Slab",
