Word Nerd Wednesday: Auriferous

Happy Wednesday, fellow word nerds! It's time for yet another installment of Word Nerd Wednesday, and if we do say so ourselves, today's word is absolute gold...

I'm currently hung up on words with au in them somewhere (don't ask why- I think it's purely a visual thing. Don't you just love how words look sometimes?), so I felt this particular word was a great pick!

For today's particular prompt, we will not be defining the word. So that means, take your best guess! (Unless of course, you already know what it means...in that case, try to shake it out of your brain and take a fresh look at it.)

1. Use the Word of the Day to inspire you: free write for ten minutes, sketch a drawing, write a list of words that sound similar to the Word of the Day, etc.

2. Compose a poem (one page or less).

3. Use the Word of the Day as your poem's title

You may look up the definition of the Word of the Day after your poem is completely finished. The correlation between the actual definition and the poem you crafted based on your own inferences may surprise you.
