A writing challenge Use these words correctly.

You’re, Your, & Yore
Their, There, & They’re
Wear, Where, & We’re

Lost in time, in days of yore,
your mother dance, a tavern whore.
You’re a twit, to this I know,
the child of, an ugly hoe.

There you sit, in all your grace,
a stupid smile, upon your face.
Your friends are nice, they’re such fakes,
with smiles on, they eat their cake.

Where were you, to this I know,
we’re a light, shining in the snow.
Wearing red, the shade of shame,
for in this poem, you are the blame.
