It's A Miracle...
I thought the word was marvelous
and so, I wrote it down
Then I looked to see
and the word was really miraculous
Now, what do I do?
I just change the word I thought was marvelous
to make it miraculous
and send it right off to you.
Now, before I send it this time
I will check to make quite sure
that it really is miraculous
and not marvelous
so, I can change it before I do
I mean wouldn't it be a joke
if in between a few tokes
that the word was marvelously
turned into a miracle
and the word was miraculous?

Words!
The word 'listen' contains the same letters as the word 'silent'.
Your words are very much sounding the same.
Clever poem, Geezer,

Thank you...
it's a pleasure to do something, that requires a little thinking for a change. ~ Geez.

Writing purely for oneself, is the ultimate in defensive posture.

This is great
What a fun poem! I love the interchanging of marvelous and miraculous. Made for a very lighthearted well written piece.

Glad I lightened...
things up a bit. I had fun with it, and I am delighted that I made somebody laugh. ~ Geez.
