Лимерики к дню Святого Патрика

Григорий Вольф
Once Saint Patrick complained to Saint Peter:
The current winter in Boston is so bitter
When the snow finally melts
People expect something else
Promise them paradise and a Beefeater

*

There is a winery in Napa Valley **
And here comes to the gates Mr. Baily
Samples glass after glass               
Then he falls on the grass
Since Merlot overwhelmed his belly.

*
Long ago used to live Mr. Clark
He decided to swim under the shark
Said he - fish is so mysterious
I got a lot of an experience
Found his belly too tight and too dark

***

* Бифитэр - двойное значение - 1. охрана Лондонского Тауэра - бифитэры
                2. марка алкогольного напитка - джин 

**(Napa Valley) Напа Вэлли - долина в Калифорнии, где производят вино
