Dave's Scrabblegrams

What is a Scrabblegram? A Scrabblegram is a message that uses each of the 100 Scrabble tiles exactly once. This means that each entry will contain exactly 9 As, 2 Bs, 2 Cs...1 X, 2 Ys, 1 Z (and 2 blanks which can be used as any letters). Follow to see a new one daily!

@dc_scrabblegram David, this palindrome utterly cracks the code to the universe. 👏

🌹REFLECTIVE ROSE🌹 (a palindrome) Hello, wordplay friends! I miss you all, hope everyone is well. I'm still mostly off of social media, but wordplay is meant to be shared. Here is a new palindrome (a revision / expansion of one I toyed with a couple of years ago). #palindrome

Well, what do you know...looks like today is #RoseWednesday. 🌹 I'll pretend that was intentional.

@dastulika It was always you (and the kindhearted community) who helped to spread the cheer, and I'll always be so grateful. For now this palindrome is a "one-and-done" for me. Someday the time will be right to return on a more regular basis...for now the turtle goes back in the shell. 🐢

@dc_scrabblegram What a terrific way to usher in the new year, Dave! Feeling fantastic to find you (resurface) here after what seems like aeons !! 🤩 Thanks for spreading the cheer. You know how to make your supporters have a jolly good time 🥳

Big thanks to both @SteveGellerMusi (my long-time wordplay editor and friend) and @Spoonerrhythms (my palindromist hero / friend) for their very helpful input over the past week.

@dastulika Many thanks! And so nice to see you again. 😊🙏

@dc_scrabblegram whoa! sheer beauty!! ❤️

@kapukamum Wonderful! Hope you've been well, Nat. 😊

Be ironic World Mental Health Day. Fun social media post. Go, don’t juxtapose. Awake to air resurgent, vivifying quiet breeze. #Scrabblegram

@marian_v_o Thank you for this blog, Marian...for your openness, your honesty, and as always your thought-provoking eloquence. I think many of us look around, see the same world that you see, and retreat to find peace and beauty wherever we can. You are very much appreciated.

@marian_v_o @MathyPoems Thank you, Marian! I hope you are well. 😊

Lovely to see JoAnne Growney @MathyPoems sharing this wonderful Scrabblegram on her blog – "Countless" by David Cohen @dc_scrabblegram: poetrywithmathematics.blogspot.com/2024/11/countl…

@LowdownCryptic @BerndAdameit This is one of my all-time favorites of yours, Lowdown! A wonderful Scrabblegram on a worthy theme. 👏👏👏

My October #Scrabblegram is for Favourite Childhood Books or Characters (Dec 2023 theme from @BerndAdameit for @dc_scrabblegram) “Life is like a ten-speed bicycle. Most of us have gears that we never use.” – Charles M. Schulz #Snoopy #Woodstock #Peanuts #Scrabble

@Ondine_Mer @LowdownCryptic Bravo, Lowdown! A marvelous mix of wordplay, poetry, and social commentary. 👏👏👏 (apologies for the delayed reply to your fine 'gram...our neighborhood has been without power and internet for a few days)

@LowdownCryptic @dc_scrabblegram 🙂👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

My September #Scrabblegram is a #poem with a skeptical take on certain acts of "Kindness" (Oct 2023 theme from @ondine_mer for @dc_scrabblegram) Kind acts by people with a platform are often expertly staged to boost their image 🙄 #randomactsofkindness #constrainedactsofpoetry

@Spoonerrhythms Truer words never spoken! 😁

@dc_scrabblegram Nice one! I didn't spot that. A pair of tree-dwelling birds' nests makes a very fine arboreal aerobra if you can't find one in the shops.

SCRABBLEGRAM* OF THE DAY Autumn 🍂 Happy equinox, everyone! Let's welcome the start of the season with a new 'gram... ...and wish a happy first day of spring to our friends in the southern hemisphere. 🪺 *Uses all 100 Scrabble tiles. #FirstDayOfAutumn, #autumn, #equinox

@Spoonerrhythms Birch crib! Red root nib into order! Bravo 👏 Any idea where I can purchase an arboreal aerobra?

@dc_scrabblegram That's a nice idea. I've lost the habit lately. I'll have to climb out of my 'birch crib' and see if I can get my 'red root nib into order'!

@kapukamum Congratulations on your retirement, Nat! Glad you haven't retired from making great collages and wordplay. 👏👏👏 May you wandermuffle to your heart's content.

@dc_scrabblegram I have retired Media detox Establish rockery zone Owed big vacation Wandermuffling jaunt you go So quiet App re–install

@Spoonerrhythms Hey, Steven! Great to see you again, hope you've been well. Maybe that book and the new season will inspire some arboreal palindromes?

@dc_scrabblegram That's a beautiful 'gram, Dave. I'm reading The Overstory by Richard Powers at the moment so my head is full of trees.
