Having Fun With Idioms

I want to tell some
things that will
Describe sayings
with fun and thrill
Here's the ones I
can remember
Stuck inside my mind
forever

The early bird gets
the worm
A breakfast food
that likes to squirm

A bird in the hand
is worth two in the
bush
Hold it gently or it
will squoosh

A penny saved is a
penny earned
A lesson some folks
haven't learned

It's a blessing in
disguise
Is hidden treasure
before our eyes

A leopard who can't
change his spots
Wears matching shoes
with polka dots

A taste of your own
medicine
Is revenge for all
your sin

Bite off more than
you can chew
Will make you choke,
turning you blue

Every cloud has a
silver lining
Keep good thoughts
so pure and shining

Getting up on wrong
side of the bed
Will lead to falls
and bumps on head

You are what you eat
So make it something
really sweet

Driving someone up
the wall
Needs a car that's
really small

That's my list of
idioms
I hope they turned
out really fun
