O'Flaherty's Goat

O'Flaherty's goat was eating my hedge1

Some explosives I gave him to chew2

He went home straight away3

And I'm sorry to say4

I was kneeling at church when it blew.

    Odd, but funny. You must really not like that guy's goat

      Thanks for your visit and comment. It is odd, but is just a few lines for a bit of fun. I have a soft place in my heart for goats and would never do anything to hurt one.

          I like goats. We had a small herd of seven as pets for a number of years and they were so much fun you wouldn't believe. Many thanks for your visit and comment.

  • This is a little strange, but made me laugh! I can't write limericks, so you did well with this.
    Good job xD
