But sanctify Christ as Lord in your hearts, always being ready to make a defense to everyone who asks you to give an account for the hope that is in you, yet with gentleness and reverence.<br /> -1 Peter 3:15

I decided to give something new a try
Oh its easy said she, but that was a lie
It was supposed to be comical, whimsical and fun
But has proved so difficult that I wish to be done!
Yes! I exclaim as I finish this line, well. . . good bye!

Once again, I experience, writers block, so I pulled up the handy-dandy Imagination Prompt Generator! And one of the many prompts it gave was. . . to write a limerick! I wasn't exactly sure of the rules so I looked them up, and decided to do a traditional 5 line one, and I get to the paper, and have no idea what to write, so I decide, why not write about writing this limerick, so there you have it, my first limerick!
