Try to correct the following poem..

I came across this poem on the internet and I feel it is a good way to notice errors that your computer spell check might miss. If you are learning English, I hope this little homonym excercise will be of benefit to you. There are no spelling errors in this poem!!


I have a spell in chequer
It came with my pea sea
It plane lee marques for my revue
Miss steaks I kin knot sea
As soon as a mist ache is maid
It nose bee four two long
And eye can put the error rite
It’s rare lea ever wrong
Eye strike a quay and type a word
And weight four it two say
Weather I am wrong or write
It shows me strait a weigh
Eye have run this poem threw it
I am shore your pleased too no
It’s letter perfect awl the weigh
My chequer tolled me sew
