Jeremiah the Medieval Monk




Jeremiah the monk
Was certainly no hunk
Though he was plenty of fun... for sure.

He was big, fat and bald
And his warts did appall
All within the monastery's door.

He wore clothes well torn
And sandals ten-years' worn
Like St. Francis, friend of the poor.

But Jeremiah the monk
Was inclined to flunk
His daily work and prayer.

He preferred to stay
On a hot Summer's day
Lazing in his tree-top lair.

While his fellow Franciscans
Being very good Christians
Were kneeling on the floor, so bare.
