Ever-rest!

Swan is ever a restless bird
Busy seeking haven and food
Finds its rest in its tiny abode
Every dawn with its own herd
My mind is also such one bird
Strayed for lives…weary and tired
Let it now enter the nest
Thy holy feet for its rest
Having Thou in my little heart
Before the soul is set to depart
Today itself, nay this very moment
No time to wait, life is evanescent
How can I remember Thou in my thought
When death is near, choking my throat?

Answering the phone, the priest was surprised to hear the caller introduce herself as an IRS auditor.

“But we do not pay taxes,” the priest said. “It isn't you, Father, it’s one of your parishioner, Sean McCullough. He indicates on his tax return that he gave a donation of $15,000 to the church last year. Is this, in fact, the truth?”

The priest smiled broadly. “The check hasn't arrived yet, but I’m sure I’ll have it when you call me next time!”
