Sense Sonnet - Tickler

Steamed Goat

The Browns invited Pastor Potts
To have dinner with them that night.
Mr. Brown had reluctant thoughts;
But, it was their turn to invite.
Pastor Potts called to ask about
Directions, which Mrs. Brown gave.
The Pastor said he'd be right out,
Unless he found a soul to save.
Soon at the door, the Pastor stood.
Young Tommy went to let him in.
The Pastor asked what smelled so good?
"Goat," Tommy replied with a grin.

"That's what I heard my Daddy say -"
"That the old goat was on his way."
