A series of miracles

On Friday, a bullet goes back into a gun
The stone rolls away easily

A politician admits: I was wrong
My ill-advised Tweets are withdrawn

There’s no need to vote, since we agree
Another – thank you, I accept your apology

On Saturday, the sky is as blue as hope
We might just as well be in Greece

Washing flaps in the breeze, like a semaphore.
What is it saying? Forgive your enemies.

At Wembley, it's England versus Germany
There is no reason for victory

By mutual agreement, the game is drawn
Honour is satisfied by the beauty of play

Sunday. No planet was harmed in the making of this barbecue
In the garden, vegan sits down with carnivore

Monday. The touch of fresh cotton on my skin
Feels like a new beginning 

The best thing? To achieve this miracle
You can just change the cover, not the whole duvet
