You may be familiar with the board game Schmovie or hashtag games on Twitter.
For years now, we’ve been collaborating on puzzle-themed hashtag games with our pals at Penny Dell Puzzles, and this month’s hook was #PennyDellPuzzlePoetry. Today’s entries all mash up Penny Dell puzzles with famous poets, verses, titles, poetry styles, and more things associated with the world of poetry!
Examples include: Langston Hughes Calling?, The Crossroads Not Taken, and “Shall I compare thee to a summer’s Daisy?”
So, without further ado, check out what the puzzlers at PuzzleNation and Penny Dell Puzzles came up with!

And drunk the milk of Pairsadise.

Made thirty-one copies, but I’m solving in pen
so it’s back to the printer again and again.

Members of the PuzzleNation readership also got in on the fun when we spread the word about this hashtag game online!
Twitter user @pauliscool1927 immediately leapt at the opportunity, offering the delightful riff, “A dog with a muzzle solves a puzzle?” which feels like both a short rhyming piece and a crossword clue.
