<ul>
 
<?php 
// Define our WP Query Parameters
$the_query = new WP_Query( 'posts_per_page=5' ); ?>
  
 
<?php 
// Start our WP Query
while ($the_query -> have_posts()) : $the_query -> the_post(); 
// Display the Post Title with Hyperlink
?>
  
 
<li><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></li>
  
 
<li><?php 
// Display the Post Excerpt
the_excerpt(__('(more…)')); ?></li>
  
 
<?php 
// Repeat the process and reset once it hits the limit
endwhile;
wp_reset_postdata();
?>
</ul>
