Rhyming Poetry Challenge

A friend wished me
Happy Hanukkah
and joked that the reason
there are so few Hanukkah songs
is that nothing rhymes with "menorah."

She's right. But I couldn't resist the challenge.


Hanukkah means bupkas
A blip in the Torah.

If it weren't for Christmas
We might just ignorah.

So spin that dreidel
Light that menorah.

Eat latkas and chocolate
And dance the horah.

  1. It's worse than "orange," but it gets the funnies when words get shaped to serve a rhyme.

    1. Thanks! It would'be been much easier to rhyme "lights" and "nights." :-)
