The parish priest was fading fast, each breath he took might be his last. He called his doctor to his side, One last request before he died. I need a politician and a C.P.A., before I die, 'til then I'll stay. The doc replied, I'll do my best, just close your eyes, and try to rest. Within an hour, a C.P.A. and politician came to where priest lay, How can we help? What can we do? Not a thing, said priest, thank you. I've lived my life as God has bid, I've tried to live as Jesus did. And now its time, my life is through, I want to die, like Jesus too, When Jesus, he was crucified, Two thieves were with him, by his side. |

Oohhh, I don't know what to say!!! That certainly wasn't the ending I was expecting.... LMAO!! Man that was good!! I want to die peacefully, in my sleep, like my grandfather, not screaming, terrified, like his passengers. |

This was such a hoot! I burst out laughing at the end, as it certainly was not what I was expecting to read. Very funny and clever! Hugs, Marti " My wrinkles are badges of courage and reveal that I am a Mother." |
