With Apologies to the Legacy of Saint John Eudes and for Mispronouncing His Name

I learned today
I share a birthday
with Saint John Eudes.
I never knew ‘dis
nor had I ever heard of
Saint John Eudes.
I saw a photo today
of Saint John Eudes.
He may have been a saint
but certainly not the cutest.
He may have been a nudist.
From such a sight may the saints preserve us.
He founded the Order of Our Lady of Charity
which she certainly must be.
If she ever saw him in his birthday suit,
she wouldn’t have told you or me.
Although, I think some heard her scream
as she did flee
from Saint John Eudes
with whom I share a birthday
and, I repeat, I never knew ‘dis.
