A Man In the Nave

There once was a man in the nave,
Although pious he could not behave ...
They paid him no mind,
’Caus his name was maligned,
Simply being a sinner to save


7th in Skat's limerick contest

Terry, I seem to be clicking and clicking and landing on all poems of yours I have seen already. Hmmm, I wonder if there are any I have missed. I may have to just begin at the beginning and read all your poems all over again!! I sure do enjoy you limerick here.

Thanks for reading my limericks. I had an uncle that lived in Paradise, which is clost both Intercourse and Blue Ball. The Amish must have a good sense of humor to name their towns such. I enjoy reading your limericks. Keep writing them and we'll flood PD.
