Celebration Time
Mordechai took life way too serious
Esther told him 'twas deleterious
She said, 'Let's celebrate'
Jewish kids just can't wait
Call it 'Purim' ~ purely delirious!
________________________________
This Wednesday evening and Thursday
is a wild and wacky Jewish festival,
Purim. It's kind of a Mardi-gras costume
affair, against a backdrop of life-and-
death in Ancient Persia... eerie under-
tones of Ukraine today, by the way.
