Heaven's Gate

Enter, mere mortal...

   God's portal...  

      Thou shalt not chortle!

Wish you hadn't wrote this because if I arrive at the gate I'll think of it and chortle, they'll send me downstairs lol. Tom

Hey, Tom! Boy, I'm awfully sorry about this... I tell you what, I'll make it up to you: I'll be 'downstairs' waiting for you. How's that?! ~ Little Devil

All that's missing from this poem is the 'Immortal!' lol. Thanks for fun comment, Andrea. Smiles for Miles, Gershon

Blake Bortles will love you for your chortles, you rebel, you! (OK -- He's a pro football quarterback. Pretty handsome too, at that). :) gw

Corker = Very good; excellent. Pure Corker = Pure classic.

Ha, ha! And I always thought the 11th Commandment was: 'Let's see if you can keep the first Ten before I give you any more...' Ha, ha: He's still waiting for us, methinks... Thanks for the fun and funny comment, Paul. Appreciated. ~ Trying to wrap my arms around: 'Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's Ferrari, landscaping, view of the lake... :)
