A phrase-full life

  
Just imagine a day in your life
Everybody expresses just through idioms
Speaking in a language that’s phrase-ful
Turning the English language o so wonderful
  
When nervous, I’ll get butterflies in my stomach
Ants in the pants, if anxious for upcoming
For happiness, its twinkle in the eyes
And other times, I’ll feel like a fish out of water
  
If it’s not enough, it’ll be a drop in the bucket
And a good lunch-pack will give mom thumbs up
My best friend’s home is at a stone’s throw
And school would always be a far cry

Friends, we’ll cook up a different language
And speak like this to avoid mom’s fury
We will delete all the “ifs” and “buts”
Turning ourselves into idioms from idiots
