                                                  A Nursery Rhyme



                                 You should know―

                                     A lemon's shaped like a lime.

                                     Two nickels equal one dime.

                                     The choicest meat is prime.
                                     And gangsters cause crime.

                                     Grease 'n' grime are a lot like slime.

                                     Mimicry is a lot like mime.
                                     Clamber is a lot like climb.

                                     And Cyme grows somewhat as does tyme.

                                 But tyme, is nothing at all like time.


                                 For time, listen to church bells chime.


               Change: thyme to tyme.
