Never Once Did He Stare

~ Revised Repost ~ 


  There once was a minister so meek
  His sole desire, the Lord for to seek
    Despite babes everywhere
    Never once did he stare
  He just smiled, then turned her other cheek

Heard a Catholic priest once say "Just because a man is on a diet that doesn't mean he can't look at the menu." This is cute Gershon. God Bless, JB
