Blooma Pie

Blooma Pie
Humble Slice,
Nimble Listener,
Blooma’s a wonder,
Aishes Chayil!
Middos Thrice Nice,
Her Yiddish Kopf is Wiser,
Avoids Goyish Blunder,
She heaves a sigh,
At ridiculous whys,
Her insights are glisteners,
Chaim’s warm summer,
Is sum of Blooma’s “Pi”,
Her humor disguised,
By her whimsical muse sensors,
“Bli” Blooma, Bummer!
“Cum” Blooma, Pecan Pie!
