Explanation:
Homophones are words that are pronounced the same way but have different meanings (and sometimes spelling).
In the first sentence, there are two homophones:<em> their </em>and<em> there.</em><em> </em><em>Their</em> is a word used to describe that something <em>belongs to them</em> (Pete and Malia's way - their way). <em>There</em> is the opposite of <em>here</em> and means <em>at that place </em>(get into the convention - get in there).
The second pair of homophones is <em>buy</em> and<em> by</em>. <em>To buy</em> is a verb that means <em>to purchase</em> something. <em>By</em> is a preposition used to state who is performing a certain action (a comic book by their favorite author - their favorite author wrote the book they are buying).
Answer:
In the poem 'The Worm', the poet Thomas Gisborne brings out the emotions he has for the little worms. He says we should take care not to step on them and take away their lives. They may be tiny but are God's creations and no one has a right to take away another's life.
