Have A Ball
Ease the ache. Cruise the lake.
Charm the Snake.
Take a break. Ice the cake.
Lift the shroud. Stand up proud.
Draw the crowd.
Don't be bowed. Laugh out loud.
Fix the glitch. Make the pitch.
Scratch the itch.
Flick a switch. Fill the niche.
Clear the slate. Tempt the fate.
Shed the weight.
Play it straight. Stop the hate.
Risk a fall. Make the call.
Climb the wall.
Land the haul. Have a ball.
