a funeral cortege was arife,

       his head bowed in prayer
       at this somber affair

to pay last respects to his wife!

Sitting There Saying a Prayer

Sitting There Saying a Prayer

While I had been sitting there,
Started suddenly to say a prayer,
When I would,
And also could;
God is always with many to spare.

Jim Horn

Getting a head start for Sunday.

In Prayer Will Plead

In Prayer Will Plead

In prayer to God will always plead,
Meet my requirements and do need;
Never boast;
Enjoy coast;
Help me to overcome all my greed.

Falling Down- Trochee

Every time I take a step,
I end up falling down.
Legs flying throw the air,
Making me look like a clown.

Though if I jump up in the sky,
Holding a simple prayer in my mind.
I fly....
Only to land on my behind!:-)

Converted

There was an old sailor who liked to swear.
And his rot-gut rum he was happy to share.
A cleric aimed to make him repent
But saw the sailor as wholly content.
Now the two are buddies bereft of a prayer.

Beautiful Linda Became a Nun

Beautiful Linda became a nun,
prayed in the Chapel forgiving John
who swore her faithfulness
with very solemn words...
she did not know that he was a con!

Limerick: Once a Cossack In Tundra Cassock

Limerick : Once a Cossack in tundra cassock

Once a Cossack in tundra cassock
Crept to spy on his wife : got a shock
She lay stooped in prayer
Without a stitch on her
Guess whose head was on the butcher’s block ?

A Prayer

It hurts if canker cuts a rose
Or the moon behind  cloud's kerchief goes'
We are that sensitive.
Therefore o God why give
Any pretty girl a runny nose?

Unfair

May I humbly say a word
Why you make my life so hard
Though I pray for your mercy
Never you send returns I see
Is it not quite unfair my Lord

Sports Illustrated

The feature this month is swimwear,
An answer to many a prayer:
Men shell out good loot
To eye a swimsuit,
Preferring the babe was all bare.

Mind Your Prayers

Poor Noah was stuck on the Ark
Quite fed up with hearing dogs bark
He prayed God, "God Grief!
Please grant us relief!" 
So now canines howl in the dark!

Zuni Weather

A Zuni who prays every day
Saw a cloud in the sky back in May
He yelled, "Do or die!"
Which made the cloud cry
And that's why its still raining today.

Unanswered Prayer Backlog

Our vicar says prayer is the best
Our doctor says pills pass the test
The Powerball
Is no cure-all
But its way ahead of the rest!

A Sloth's Life

A Sloth's Life

I'm your lil sloth hanging on a prayer
The bump on the log without any flair
Hail Mary full of grace
Leave me from this rat race
Indifferent I suspend of any care

Infiltrating Trump's embargo
An Imam reached Mar-a-Lago
But his Call to Prayer
Just floated on air
The Trumps worship at Wells Fargo

We Need a New God

It does not matter how much I pray
God does not give me the time of day
That "omnipotent" snot
Did not try to save squat
When my iPhone drowned yesterday!

Piano Two

This young man who played the piano.
Knew something had to be done pronto!
     So during the prayer
     When no one's aware.
He zipped pants right up with a gusto!

John Rutter Choir Practice

John Rutter Choir Practice

I had found precious singing full of feeling;
Concentrating on each note as if kneeling;
In a prayer,
While being there;
Drew in attention with sounds so appealing.

A limerick should be fun and silly
It should not be sad and chilly

A prayer for the world this poem will be

There Are Things We Have Tried

There are many things have tried,
Designed to keep minds occupied;
In each thought,
That we sought;
With God in prayer should confide.

FRAGILE ,  HANDLE  WITH   PRAYER

God made us able and agile,
But life is fragile,
Handle it with prayer,
He will always be there,
You will sense him from the surrounding dazzle!

Nun of the Above Supplication

I do not like how bed bugs prey
They feast upon us night and day
Praise God be kind
Grant peace of mind
And blow those blood-suckers away!
