One Letter Makes A Difference Poem by George Stanworth

One letter makes a difference to a word as we all know.
I would never trust an Editor who mixed up 'Sew' with 'Sow'.
A 'Lollipup' would be obscene, a pack of 'Sweats' disgusting.
A lunchtime 'Cornish Nasty' - Well that's not one I'm trusting!

One letter changes meanings of a word as we all know.
Who would want some falling snot instead of falling snow?
Who would drink some 'Hater', or have some 'Lemonape'?
Who would buy a 'Milkshame', or drink a 'Strawberry Snake'?

One letter changes meanings of a word as we all know.
Athletes would get so confused with 'Ready, Steady, No! '
'Farts' would be a smelly sport, and 'Footwall' would be bold,
but everyone would celebrate if golf turned into gold!
