"It is the end of the world", they cry "Those not saved will surely die!" Never mind the fun fact Previous dates inexact Get the marshmallows out for the fry!

Thanks, Catie! I saw a news story the other day and was just giggling. Every year there seems to be a new "rapture" date :)

Thank you, Elton. It was a limerick that came about after reading about the latest "rapture" date. I'm always chuckling when I hear about them :) I appreciate you stopping by to read it :)

Nicely written and quite humorous. In the country area where I live, I sometimes see a bumper sticker reading, "In case of rapture, this vehicle will become driverless." It always reminds me of Jesus' comment about the Pharisees who he rebuked for "declaring themselves righteous." Elton
