A bird in the hand will mostly peep,
The grass is greener walked beside,
The look before is worth the leap,
A friend indeed needs sanctified.
The less we know the fondest learned,
No stone unturned will roll away,
A penny saved, a dollar spurned,
Where there's a will, no need to say.
A new cliché distills
What we always knew
Again is true
As kissing you fulfills
How we've come this way
To love today.
Two points drawn beg for a line,
A miss is good but once a mile,
A stitch of time will lengthen mine,
Misery loves company a while.
The witch prefers what she has warmed,
Standing saves both chair and seat,
Time will tell when passed forewarned,
Good news--no news with a treat.
A new cliché inspires
Affirmation to
Repeat truth through
Our children's fresh desires
Seeking their own way
To love today.
A new cliché distills
What we always knew
Again is true
As kissing you fulfills
How we've come this way
To love today.
