With the end of April, a time dedicated to poetry, but in this year too full of tragedy, perhaps one last poem with a touch of humor is a helpful way to close out the month.
Never Say Never
And other lines worthy of Yogi Berra
A chain is only as strong as – its missing link
All that glitters – is a fool and his money
A watched pot is – where the heart is
An ounce of prevention – saves nine
Cleanliness is – the best medicine
A friend in need is – a penny saved
Two wrongs don’t make – a good turn
Birds of a feather – are two in the bush
A miss is as good as – kissing your sister
Leave well enough – where angels fear to tread
Ignorance is the root of all evil – and money is bliss
Good things come to those – who help themselves
Life is short – and the good die young
Rules were made – to flock together
The best things in life – must come down
There’s no fool like – the eye of the beholder
When the cat’s away – the early bird gets the worm
There’s no time like – having your cake and eating it too
When the going gets tough – no news is good news
The grass is always greener – on the road to hell
Where there’s a will – it might be Shakespeare
Eat, drink and be merry – is well enough
Better safe – than never
Better late – than sorry
Leave well enough – in one basket
A little knowledge – also killed the cat
Money doesn’t grow – in love and war
Actions speak louder than – good intentions
Half a loaf is better than – catching the worm
The end justifies – the mother of invention
If it ain’t broke – it’s a bird in the hand
Out of sight is – a dangerous thing
Easy come – soon parted
And great minds – think
