A rather stiff lady from March
died slowly from falling in starch
She set in a pose
whilst holding her nose
and was used in a church as an arch

HA! I snort-laughed! 😀
My apologies to the lady for laughing at her starchy demise! 😮
It seems appropriate she ended up as a church-arch…her being so strait-laced and all. 😉
HUGS!!!
PS…Peter, your limericks are THE bestest! 🙂

If I ever fall in something like that I’ll have to remember to try to look heroic or something.
