Vatican Incident - Limerick

Vatican Incident - Limerick 

A young maiden dressed like a mannequin 
Snuck into the church at the Vatican
To curse at the pontiff 
So they called the sheriff  
She would not be invited back again

Hi Sarah, Thanks! The maiden just needs a little more church and a little less curse. On the subject of your work; true is true. Your work is true. Have a great week end. Earl

Hi Jan, Thank you. I'm glad you liked it. It was like assembling a puzzle without enough words or parts. I wanted the girl to "curse" and "do worse" "strip" and end up suffer repentance or at least do penance for her sins, but it didn't work out this time. Maybe next time. Have a pleasant night. Take care. Earl
