SHE WANTED TO BE A NUN


After graduating from eighth grade,
She wanted to be part of the novitiate,
of the Holy Sisters of Nazareth.
Dad put his foot down loud and hard.

How she went from that, to nurse,to 
teacher ,to comedian and bellydancer?
Are eternal questions to which she...

Sexy Nun
Sister, sister sitting there so sweet
Looking so virtuous, acting discreet.
Any male would eagerly bow at your feet
You have no idea of your allure, you're without conceit
Are you offering up a trick or a treat?
Only then will this Halloween finally be complete
Ready your answers to God...

The Nun and the Witches Last Walk
Even though
It was so long ago
It still holds the place in my heart
The one I reserved for special moments
with him 
The times before his health
got the best of our relationship
Back when my grandpa 
was able to be my 
grandpa

It was my first parade
and one of...

Premium Member We'Re Having Nun of That
Two Nuns travel through Europe by car
Guided by the heavens North Star
Transylvania they reach
Hymn singing they preach
Not realizing they have come so far

At a busy junction they now stop
The red light is about to colour swap
Then out of the night
A most scaring sight
Onto their bonnet...

A Wet Nun
A flamenco dancer in Spain
encountered a nun in the rain.
He shouted,' Olé.'
Her fingers astray, 
she grunted, 'I'm coming again.'

Just some silliness, written today for Andrea's limerick contest...

Nun Fun In the Sun
NUN FUN IN THE SUN

There was in hot Tashkent in the orient
A religious uprising - a  convent dissent.
Army was ordered in with gunnery,
The soldiers targeted the nunnery.  
 
Here are the events in vista: 
One lovely sista was forbidden a mista, 
But a...

Premium Member Dorothea the Nun
veils escape the province of the sea
like sea lions bouncing balls
presenting their accoutrements.

the silken fare, in the center of the square -
everyone sees the princely dyes.

         off to the side, a nun, on her knees

Premium Member Follow the Nun
One day, She looked and saw what I done
For tomorrow is fine, now I’ll follow the Nun
She caught me acting up and having fun
She gave me detention, so I’ll follow the Nun

And now the time has come, to detention I’ll go
I will get a concussion...

Exchanging some bodily fluid,

Lost stickum while coming unglu..ed....

and it made her a "Mother Superior"!...

Go Jo, Our Neighborhood Nun
Sister Josephine, our neighborhood nun.

No longer fit for ministry; 
although she’s quit the nunnery,
she sits at our day camp nursery.
Go Jo uses every amp of energy
so as to champion or otherwise dampen
the spirit of grit in our scamps.

Sister Josephine, power shavers couldn’t stun.

Noise is born...

Nun Betty On Trial
"In twenty four hours" after "dancing with the devil"
Begins the "lifting of my veil" you'll see I'm totally being level

Head nun said, "look before you leap" but yet I ended up "in his bed"
Filled full of...
