Eleemosynarius

Eleemosynarius

Isn't Latin for hilarious,

It's the antithesis of nefarious,

Benevolently delirious,

Unselfishly mysterious,

And for giving, notorious -

Eleemosynarius.

Every week I rhyme and define a new wacky word.

Come on over to indulge your inner nerd.
And, please let me know of any weird words you've heard!

Thank you, Mary Hudak-Collins for suggesting the above word.
