Manischewitz Wine
Every year for Passover,
There’s Manischewitz wine.
It’s Concord Grape and super sweet;
For holiday, it’s fine.
Some people will not drink it,
Since it’s syrupy and thick,
But for Seders every year, it is
The only wine I’d pick.
Throughout the pre-meal reading,
There are times to fill your cup.
It’s expected that you’ve drained your glass
Four times before you sup.
I guess in ancient times they knew
Exactly where this led –
Tipsy diners wouldn’t notice
Matzoh standing in for bread.
