Why is it - Hymn to the Homonym
(something childish and fun – I need it!)

Why is it...

Any day I can
Eat a sundae,
But I cannot
Always shop on Sunday?

Why is it...

You can dish up
Food on a plate.
And you can dish
Up pain with a plate?

Why is it...

That a plait in your hair
Is an attractive thing,
But a plate on your head
Looks ridiculous?

Why is it...

That ceding to someone
Is giving up,
But seeding a native forest
Is giving back?

Why is it...

That the growth
In our waist,
Corresponds to the growth
In our waste?

Why is it...

That climate change
Is not considered minor,
But it’s mitigation
Spells b_i_g t_r_o_u_b_l_e for a miner?

Why is it...

A miner can never be bored
And is always busy,
But their mine
Is constantly bored?

Why is it...

Everywhere you look
There’s a scene,
But even though there’s looking,
Nothing's really seen?

Why is it...

In most games
It’s good to throw a ball
But if it hits you in the head,
Then you bawl?

Why is it...

Before you pull the trigger
One needs to cock,
But if you pull a cock
….oh my

Why is it...

That it may well be
That this amateur bard,
Could soon find himself
…. barred?

So...why is it?
