R is for Roman Preacher

As mentioned in prior posts, there are over 55 different types or styles of poetry. Another well know type or style is the limerick. Here is my very first attempt at a limerick. Please enjoy and be kind in your comments.

There once was a preacher from Rome
Who had a heart for his home
But its love and devotion
Overtook him with emotion
leaving him exhausted down to the bone

Yvonne - Thank you so much! This was very hard for me to finalize. I don't know how many drafts and different ideas I had to make this final draft. I have never written a limerick and this was tougher than I thought.
