The Nun and The Dog Palindrome Limerick


The lady was quite civic minded,
as a nun she always presided
midnight to noon on the harp 
until her old dog did bark
Mum I fear your tune is one-sided!

The dog said must I refer you to this,
the deed you long ago signed with a kiss
and a pip on the head,
a tenet until dead,
my howls deified along with your riffs.
