Gershon Wolf Poet Limerick

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

Alexis Y. February 4, 2019 at 8:36 PM 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 Gershon Wolf February 4, 2019 at 9:24 PM One of my kids' teacher's taught 'moral lessons' and basic decency via these episodes, interestingly enough... Thank you for the feedback, Alexis. :) gw
