St. Patrick's Catholic Sense of Humor

Limerick of the Week

By Gerard DiLeoPublished 2 years ago Updated 2 years ago 1 min read
"Amen! You're all Catholics now."

Patrick was a cleric and a prude

Who thought it would be hysterically rude

To rid Ireland of snakes

By driving them into lakes

Where the Protestants swam in the nude
