Axioms With A Twist

A day without sunshine is like... well... night” A brilliant axiom I say To the person that uttered this amazing observation You certainly just made my day “If the world didn't suck, we'd all fall off” That's a mighty safe assumption So stop your belly aching and enjoy yourself Invite someone out for some munchin' “Don't sweat the petty things or pet the sweaty things” Surely can get pretty gross Especially if a person hasn't bathed for a month Takes the thrill outta being close “I started with nothing and still have most of it” This one most certainly hits home I'm sure almost everyone can relate to these words Sorry I didn't listen to that gnome “You can't have it all coz where would you put it” I'll figure something out you can bet Buy me a mansion with seventy-three rooms Become the happiest pack rat yet

I was delighted to find this poem--your 2d one for today. I appreciate the humor in the axioms you shared...made me smile. I've heard them before but didn't think of them in the humorous and creative way you did. You made my day again, Jack. Have a pleasant evening, Sara
