Gershon Wolf Poet Rhyme

A Second Chance For the World

~ Limerick-Style Rhyme ~


If we boycott every country that discriminates against Jews
We couldn't go anywhere; not one single country could we choose
   So before boycotts we start
   Why not be smart
Let's give the world a second chance ~ Take a honeymoon cruise



     ~ Gershon Shmuel Itzkovitz ~
                My real name
       And yes, this poem's personal

J. Summers April 12, 2021 at 10:12 PM Great read Gershon. As you told ilene you can’t legislate love. I’ve watched them try now for 60 years and we’re not getting any closer. John Gershon Wolf April 13, 2021 at 6:15 PM Yup. We sure do agree about trying to 'legislate love' alright. Thanks, John! :) gw

Ilene Bauer April 12, 2021 at 12:42 PM well said, gershon! sadly, i don't think things will ever change, not even in our own country... Gershon Wolf April 12, 2021 at 5:53 PM Perhaps when we truly start to love our fellow Jew, people might change their outlooks...Nah! Can't legislate love. ;) gw

Rico Leffanta April 12, 2021 at 12:12 PM Like everyone else, Jews need to focus on sex, not sects! Aloha! Rico Rico Leffanta April 13, 2021 at 10:57 AM They require a new name as they have mistaken "progressive" for "regressive". Perhaps they just need you to show them how its done? Aloha! Rico Gershon Wolf April 12, 2021 at 5:44 PM So far, the ultra-religious Jews are focused in on sex. They average 7 kids per family, per the latest Pew Census Survey. As for the Progressive Jews, they must be pulling out at the last minute --- not even 1.0 kids per family... OH, well.

Edward Ibeh April 12, 2021 at 11:01 AM Truer words have never been spoken, Gershon. We all deserve a second chance! Awesome write! Gershon Wolf April 12, 2021 at 5:39 PM A second chance... A Better Chance! Thanks, Edward. :) gw

Anne-Lise Andresen April 12, 2021 at 6:59 AM - Everyone must be given a second chance ... we humans have no right to judge anyone, Gershon Shmuel Itzkovitz :) - hugs // Anne-Lise :) Gershon Wolf April 12, 2021 at 5:33 PM That's right, Anne-Lise. Best to leave the judging to the Ultimate Judge. :) gw

Caren Krutsinger April 12, 2021 at 6:16 AM I am ready to give everyone a second chance! Even the Irish, which I am part of. My mother being a McCormick and all. Gershon Wolf April 12, 2021 at 5:32 PM Ha, ha, ha, ha! I guess your family deserves another chance, alright --- even if there are McCormicks in there.

Tom Cunningham April 12, 2021 at 2:01 AM Sad but your words are so true Gershon, every country should hang their heads in shame. Tom Gershon Wolf April 12, 2021 at 5:30 PM Thanks for the support on this one, Tom. You're right -- but there's not a snowball's chance in hell of it happening. :) gw
