Let There Be Limericks: a Little Bit Biblical I

The Garden of Eden Some people believe that the Garden of Eden Was in Africa, Asia, Australia...not Sweden. The presumed site of its location Is assumed from the interpretation Of which Good Book's being read…and who's doin' the readin'. Noah Noah's ark, neither yacht nor a sloop, Was constructed to be one big animal coop. On his crew It must have been a strain That during forty days and nights of rain To keep forking in fodder and scooping out poop. It Ain't Necessarily So Pious people are prone to become agitated When agnostics assess their belief's overrated, And the words that they're liable To find in the Bible By mere men were created, not divinely dictated.

This is wonderful. Jim. I'm going to keep it! It's such a pleasure to read your work, this and the haikus, too! Also thank you for you comments on my short story. I can't see how to respond to you from that post. I am so happy to hear that it's working for you. Elizabeth

Elizabeth, thank you. Yes, I've wondered about that comment business. Even on Articles you can't leave or receive them. I guess that's where Soup Mail comes in handy.
