Wit Twister #2, With a Holiday Theme

[StuartC]

Dear Friends,

Here’s another Wit Twister. The four missing words
are anagrams of the same seven letters.

Thanks and have a great holiday!

~ Thanksgiving 2020 ~

Reunions this year have been widely _ _ _ _ _ _ _
And who _ _ _ _ _ _ _ joy when the fun is downsized?
But if you were a host (now a Zoom-call _ _ _ _ _ _ _)
The choice that you made was both safer and wiser.
The ways we connect are profound and _ _ _ _ _ _ _
And when there is love, none better, none worse.

I have the answers but I'm gonna wait until tomorrow morning to submit so that I can give other people a chance!

Good morning and happy Thanksgiving!

Reunions this year have been widely REVISED
And who DERIVES joy when the fun is downsized?
But if you were a host(now a Zoom-call DEVISER)
The choice that you made was both safer and wiser.
The ways we connect are profound and DIVERSE
And when there is love, none better, none worse

Do you come up with these by yourself?

That one was tougher, and I'm impressed with your puzzle-solving skills. Yes, I write/create them; I got interested in Wit Twisters when Will Shortz started publishing them every Saturday in the Times. Thanks for playing along, and Happy Thanksgiving to you, too!

Thank you! That is very impressive I could never do something like that. The line that helped me get it was 'The ways we connect are profound and DIVERSE' also on the last one I noticed that they were like poems in which the last word in each line rhymes with the line either before or after it. Since today is Thanksgiving I posted some Thanksgiving-themed jokes in the 'Other' discussion(the disscussion at the very bottom because I didn't want to steal your thunder) and I would really appreciate it if you checked them out.
