Word play is so much fun.
But words astray could mean a pun.

Witty words would work wonders,
Arranged as an amusing alliteration.

A bird’s chirp and a sheep’s baa
There’s a jingle in every onomatopoeia.

Why palindrome reads the same front and back?
Like madam, level and kayak?

When words play around a similar sound
There’s resonance of an assonance.

Kick the bucket or give up the ghost
Are euphemism that mean alike.

A Soul of ballad is a Bowl of salad.
Is it a gaffe, or just spoonerism?

Oxymoron is ‘awfully good’.
Which way does it sway? I’m ‘clearly confused’.
