St. Pete in a Mood

Limerick of the Week

By Gerard DiLeoPublished 2 years ago β€’ 1 min read
"Not So Fast!"

St. Peter, in a mood to berate

Welcomed the bus load at the gate

He let in the sinners,

The losers and winners

But televangelists went elsewhere, straight!

"I think he said something about our bus being diverted."

Limerick
