Homophone Triplets

First, let's define homophone: Each of two, or more, words that sound the same but are spelled differently

Here are some triplets:
Meet, meat, mete all sound the same 
As do to, too, and two.
for that  matter "do" also has due and dew
then there's" 
you, yew, and ewe
flue, flew, and flu
Peek, Peak, and Pique
pear, pare, and pair
New, knew, and gnu

Let's use each of the trios in a sentence:

I'll have the meat ready to mete out for dinner when we meet.
You did that to me two too many times.
Do you understand that our wet footprints are due to the dew?
Did you see the ewe under the yew?
I will pare the pear and split it with my pair of boys.
Unable to peek over the peak, the climber left in a fit of pique.
In my flu delerium I imagined a bird flew down the flue.
I knew about the new gnu at the zoo.

That's all I have for now.  Try to find some others

Until next time.  Namaste!
