Sunday in the Loft with Anton (Two Limericks)



(1)


When Bruckner was done on a Sunday

He didn’t relax even one day,

He finished his chores

Then he worked on his scores,

And never took time for a fun day.



(2)


The service as sung at St. Florian

Was probably chaste and Gregorian,

But devout attendees

Had Herr Bruckner on keys,

Which must have been something to glory in.
