I started off kind of badly with STONE with 173 words remaining and just one yellow box. POUCH was a very lucky second guess. I was thinking COUCH because I’m looking for a new one for my TV room, but I didn’t like the double ‘C’ so I moved to POUCH and snagged the first two green boxes. I still had 6 words left and no clue what the Wordle would be. I went with POLYP and finally narrowed it down to just one: POPPY for the win!

Today’s Wordle Etymology
The word "poppy" comes from Old English popig, which likely came from Latin papaver, meaning the poppy plant. The Latin word may have imitative origins, mimicking the sound of popping or the milky juice (pappa, meaning "milk" or "pap") found in the plant. The term originally referred to the flower and its opium-producing properties.
