Faith is now quite uncertain. I'm no longer acting-as-if.

MadPriest
There once was a man called MadPriest. Of his humor he served up a feast. He stirred up a storm To his bishop's alarm. Now he's merry, but churchless, poor priest.
I'll play. Jake has closed the comments down, none too soon.
There once was a grandmére called Mimi She liked to read and write postings that were most seamy Her rector found out He was quite devout And now she must be seemly, poor Mimi
I write this blog picturing my rector looking over my shoulder. So far, I have told only one person from my church about it. I don't know if he has told anyone else. Even if he has, I don't think there are many blog readers in the congregation.
Lindy, how did you sniff out this old post? If I did not get emails about new comments, I would never have found this, "You make my day," comment. Thank you.
she's a poet now!
ReplyDeleteOoooh, good one! My only suggestion would be to use "beast" as your last word. ;-)
ReplyDeleteAgreed, brilliant!
ReplyDeletecheers
We want MP still to have a church. Hope your poem isn't prescient.

ReplyDeleteCaminante, You mean besides OCICBW? Oh, that's right. We don't pay him.
But MP did talk a while back about being in a precarious position vis-a-vis his bishop about getting a position in a church.
Let's pray his bishop doesn't read my blog, and let's pray, especially - and seriously - that he does find a position in a church.
I simply can't imagine how the ecclesiastical powers that be could be upset with the dear man :)
ReplyDeleteRichard, I expect that by now MP has burned every bridge within miles.
ReplyDeleteNevertheless, we must hope.

I just thought of the perfect new career for MP. He could start a home for out of work fox hounds.
ReplyDeleteYou were brilliant even before I started visiting...
