Good Old Barney Fife

Barney was the Sheriff's right hand man When danger beckoned, he took a brave stand -- Barney's voice rose so high Bad guys reached for the sky -- Giggles! ~ Barney always forgot the game plan February 04, 2019 Entry in "Limerick 4" Poetry Contest Sponsor: Joseph May

Hi Gershon, I love the re-runs of the Andy Griffith show. I enjoyed watching all of the characters in MayBerry. Barney was my favorite. In my eyes this is a winner. I wish you the best of luck in the contest:-) Alexis

One of my kids' teacher's taught 'moral lessons' and basic decency via these episodes, interestingly enough... Thank you for the feedback, Alexis. :) gw

Usually the Sheriff had already given the bad guys the rub! Great humor...the good ole days!
