What I think is quite ironic
Is that the word phonetic?

SOUNDS LIKE
CLOSE SHAVE
Why is it when?
Two
planes almost hit
It’s
called a near miss?
That
doesn’t fit
It
should actually
Be
called a near hit?
HAPPY AS A PIG
I don’t wish to appear a prig
But
never wrestle with a pig
Don’t
even do it for a bet
This
you should not forget
You’ll
both be covered in shit
MANY A MICKLE
Life can be a struggle day by day
Scrimping
and saving pennies away
By
the time you can make ends meet

Spread across the globe
Like a single organism
In bacterial proportions
And this human creature
This single entity
This living breathing
Multiplying mass thrives
And its heartbeat is love
A TIME OF MIRACLES
The cynics say of miracles
That they are a scarce commodity,
If they happen at all
But to my mind
There is nothing more miraculous
Than the birth of a child
It may be the most common placed
Of miracles
But it is miraculous
Nonetheless
