Sudoku


Sudoku

Finish the grid to exercise your brain.
It's a fun diversion 
when you're cooped up by rain.
Write each number in every line,
by row and column, every number, 
from one to nine.
Fill every block, each three by three.
No repeats  - check and see.
Each grid, like each line, 
must contain all nine.
No math is needed, but...
rules of logic must be heeded. 
Have some fun, 
spend a little time.
Then, to be like me, 
turn the subject 
into a rhyme.


 Learn about Sudoku.

  6. This is so tempting. I love how distracting the puzzle is from my reading the poem, and vice versa. A doubly fun post, Connie.
    Happy Friday and weekend.

  8. This is a great posting, but I have never done this type puzzle. It would be a good thing to do on rainy day when I have lots of time.

  9. What a coincidence! Just this past week I pulled a Sudoku book of puzzles from the shelf to try to learn how to work them. So far I'm still dumb about it. I'll check out your tips and see where I go. (Not that I need anything to do on a rainy day ;) And, I agree with Susie, you amaze me!

  14. That is about the most I could do with Soduko, make a rhyme about it! I do letters well, not numbers. LOL

  15. My husband LOVES Soduko! I, on the other hand, prefer simple crossword puzzles or logics. Nice poetry!

  16. After reading this poem, Connie, I wondered whether or not you were a Sudoku fan. I admit to not being able to work my way through even a single puzzle, but enjoy crossword puzzles so much more.
