Ye Olde Testament

(aka Merçi à Lot)

God has a strict measure of worth
As well as a Jew's sense of mirth
God once said to Lot,
"You know what you've got?
Your wife is the Salt of the Earth!"

Rico, I love great lims and this is a GREAT one! I've been reading a lot of your lims and you are a master of limericks! Keep on cranking them out for our delight! Many thanks re your comments re Granny's Tattoos. I have another on the net titled Tattoo from Kalamazoo you might find interesting. Best to you as you continue your poetical journey - Bob
