Very Funny Axioms


“Cross my heart and hope to die” A saying from years past That has survived for many eons And will most likely last But there are so many others “Barking up the wrong tree” Choosing a maple instead of an oak Oblivious to a life carefree “Two wrongs don't make a right” In a fatal car accident When one person is declared dead Other suffered flatulence “The pen is mightier than the sword” Not likey to win an award Have you ever tried writing a novel With the tip of a sword “Two heads are better than one” Run like hell I'd say If you see someone with two heads Freaking weird run away “Absence makes the heart grow fonder” Living on Planet Mars Wonder where the red comes from Sure is prettier than ours

Dear Jack, You had me chuckling from start to finish! Your witty take on classic sayings and axioms brought a fresh perspective and a lot of laughter. Each stanza is a delightful twist on familiar phrases, turning them on their heads in the most unexpected and humorous ways. Your clever wordplay and irreverent humor make for an enjoyable read that leaves a lasting impression. I particularly enjoyed the line about writing a novel with the tip of a sword – quite the mental image! Your ability to inject humor into everyday expressions is a testament to your creativity and wit. Thank you for sharing your comedic talent it brightened my day and left me with a smile on my face. - Blessings, Daniel
