welcome back again, our friend, AYC
we missed u to no end, your posts, your sensitivity
Also, yasher koach for reviving this thread
for a while it has been totally dead
what…is everyone STILL in their beds??
I know, I know….Monday blues, the stress, the aching heads,
Although we turned back our clocks, gained an hour or so
but today’s Monday, and THAT was hours ago!!
A fresh week of posts, comments, and rhymes lay ahead
So much work to be done! need it be said?
so get your lazy bones outta bed
push that pillow away already from your head
and grab your keyboard and mouse instead.
Of course something like this would phase me
The milk in the carton was turning mayonaissey
So I grabbed the milk, receipt, and headed back to the store
When it slipped, dropped, and spilled onto the new, hardwood floor
A Sad, Sad Week
This rhyme is not meant to amuse
I just cannot read anymore news
day after day, tragedies we never knew
one worse than the next, is it not true
What a difficult week for all of us jews
Believing these horrific reports, I refuse
Untimely passings, tragedies galore
Sorry, i just need to express my sad moods

Instead of drowning your sorrow in booze
Perhaps you can try to just “chap” a snooze
And refresh yourself with vim and vigor
For Hashem is leading, and His picture is bigger
Let’s combat the sad news by doing more chesed
Volunteer in a hospital or in Aym v’yeled
With increased zchuyos and spreading good cheer
May we all be zoche to a wonderful great year
AKY”R
AYC, I hear what you say
and I do hope and pray
that come what may
these ???????? ???? stop right away
Perhaps I should take on a vow
something light, nothing WOW
a new ?????, or a chessed job
instead of sitting here depressingly and sob
’cause next time I come to rhyme
i wanna see that sun shine
with YWN flooded with Mazel Tovs
new babies, weddings, and Bar Mitzvohs
Only simchas, and happy news
a dose of “cheer” we sure can use
then I’ll raise my glass of booze
and toast a L’CHAIM to all you, my fellow jews
BaalHabooze
The sun is ALREADY shining
Your kids are healthy and aren’t whining
Every cloud has a silver lining
Count your blessings and you’ll be smiling.
OMG, am yisrael chai, you are right
it was there the whole time in full sight
if I would only look at the good I had
and not focus on the bad
i wouldn’t end up so sad
thank you for showing me the light
BaalHabooze
By now your disposition should be shining
And you’re probably back to boozing and “wining”…
I actually think this rhyme game is great
The talent of fellow cr’ers I appreciate
I felt I should write this before it gets late
You see, here in Israel, it’s already a quarter past eight
And in a little while, I’ll meet my husband, my mate
But I just had to tell you that your poetry skills are top rate!
If you rhyme, pay attention to meter.
The better the lines flow, the neater.
If all follows nicely,
And oh so precisely,
The whole poem sounds that much sweeter.
Moski, I actually was trying to figure out a way to fit that word in, but it just didn’t go with the flow.
ive been thinking a bit
for an hour i’ll admit
about a unique creation
a divine gift that brings elation
though so very common
it gets us all hummin’
cleans and refreshes
so cheap yet so precious
a delight from our King
life’s most basic thing
its water to which i refer
so spiritual and pure
sustains us all
big or small
it’s our life, our cure
But besides its obvious components
there are certain moments
we should appreciate, just reflect
not to be indifferent nor neglect
lifes beauty in its simplest forms
thats what this rhyme informs
so next time you take a shower
think of the Higher Power
that created this delicious pleasure
that we truely love and treasure
THANKSGIVING
They thank once a year
over a turkey dinner and beer
for all the country’s good
especially all the food
which eventually their theighs will wear
But not the Chosen Nation
who expresses his elation
for all that He has given
Our gratitude towards Him
We express EACH DAY in prostration
Your bump 4 months ago and 5 months ago and 6 months ago did a lot of good…
(Hint, hint.)
