Ha! Haa! I loved this wonderfully written poem. Great way to tell a story that will be entertaining when read aloud. It is what is called' As you sow, so you reap'. Good luck!

Very imaginative, and also clever and witty. Made me smile. The poem is almost like a song, and could be accompanied by a banjo or ukulele! Very catchy. Good wishes for the contest.

This is a nicely written poem for the laughter contest. It has a great flow and rhyme scheme. So soon we face the hangman our lives still fancy free.
There's lots of loot near the pearly gates. We are the heavens three. Well done. Good luck in the contest.

Yes, this did make me laugh, Mystery Writer. I enjoyed reading and following the story. I like the rhyme and the way the last line change about the three. There's good flow and great imagery. Thanks for sharing and best wishes.
Respectfully, Jan

Dear Jingles, I loved this poem. And for your information, it DID make me laugh.
In addition, it is most artfully constructed.
I particularly enjoyed the last few lines, where these foolish fellows think, they are going to find a bunch of loot, at the gates of heaven.

What a delightful little jingle that flows smoothly from the beginning to the end, as it tells a story. As the story progresses, it has great imagery. It also has the perfect title. Best wishes in the contest.

Supper-doper poem with a funny twist: "So soon we face the hangman
Our lives still fancy free
There's lots of loot near the Pearly Gates
We are the Heaven's three" Thank you for sharing and good luck with the contest.
