A Ticking Off

A vicar when teaching his flock
Would never pay heed to the clock
Until his lost sinners
Arrived with their dinners
Which finally made him take stock!

You have a very clever way with words Wendy. Injecting fun into a limerick is not an easy task at all. You have certainly suceeded! Thanks for the Sunday morning smile. Cheers - Gary
