- A good local pub has a lot in common with a church, except the pub is warmer and the conversation goes easier.

William Blake

Accept, the chastity and understanding of the spirit A life in strict celibacy, ignore their sexual feelings Frivolity, a path that leads straight to hell Has God given them everything for nothing? Disobedient nuns at the bar ...

A mixture of witty-serious lines, Anne-Lise. Has God given them everything for nothing?...surely not! We too make choices and try to give our all. ~ Congratulations on your fine win. Hugs // paul

There's something about disobedient nuns that is pleasant; especially if you've ever attended a catholic school, like I did.

Being I grew up catholic I feel they are too strict on their priests and nuns and that perhaps if they were allowed to be human there would be else sinners among them. Good poem :) hugs

Despite what some people think, the nuns I knew all had a great sense of humor. I don't think God minds a little "frivolity." What a cute poem and the picture is great too! Best wishes in the contest. Hugs, Carolyn

- Most people go to the bar as often as nuns bathe naked ... there are many opportunities, Carolyn :) - We are created in the image of God, and that also means that we have a free will :) - Thank you so much for visiting and your comments :) - hugs // Anne-Lise :)

LOL nuns at the bar. I can see this one clearly. Happens daily. :) We all have fallen short. Still do. Tiny birds, sing at your window and dance on the patio just outside your door. Ann

LOL! My great-great Aunt Marion was a nun from 14 years old. Met her as a baby then again in sixth grade. Mother Superior at the time, she drove to our house in a station wagon loaded with gifts. She once wrote our family that she was stopped for speeding - the officer called her “the flying nun” (reference to the tv comedy) Said if she hadn’t been a nun she would have been an actress.

- She was very young to make such a serious choice - A lady with a sense of speed and excitement ... “the flying nun” :))) - Thank you so much for visiting and your comments, Kim :) - hugs // Anne-Lise :)
