Passover Memories
Tonight we’ll sit around the table
While we’re reminiscing
Both about the Israelites
And those whom we are missing.
Every Seder takes me back
To those when I was young.
I can hear my Zadie’s voice,
The Hebrew that was sung.
I can...

The Recipe on the Box
Each year I make the matzoh balls,
Which come out pretty good.
My husband cooks the chicken soup;
Our roles are understood.
He always wings it when he cooks,
Just uses what’s on hand
And never needs a recipe,
Which I can’t...

Two Seders
At Seder 1 we helped prepare
The soup and matzoh balls served there,
The hard-boiled eggs and chicken dressed
In farfel flakes, which tastes the best.
At tables set to serve sixteen,
With kids and grandfolk on the scene,
We read...

Potato Latkes
Potato latkes, fried in oil
Are eaten every year
When calendars remind us
That our holiday is here.
To keep up the tradition,
There are choices we must make –
Buy them frozen in the market,
Use a mix (that’s a...

Matzoh Ball Soup
Eating in a New York diner?
Here’s a little scoop:
You don’t have to be Jewish
To have matzoh balls in soup.
For in this local area
(New Jersey is included),
When soup is on the menu,
Matzoh ball won’t be excluded.

Manischewitz
Once a year, for one week straight,
A beer I will decline.
Instead, I will indulge in
Manischewitz kosher wine.
If you have never tried it,
Well, your life is not complete,
But you’d sure surprise your taste buds
‘Cause it’s...

Pre-Seder
The chicken soup and matzoh balls
Are ready for the pot.
The hard-boiled eggs are in the fridge.
(We never eat them hot.)
The items for the Seder plate
All wait for their debut,
With my homemade charoses.
(Google if you have...

The Passover Section
With springtime now upon us,
If your town has lots of Jews,
The supermarket has some foods
You might have need to use.
For Passover’s approaching
And the holiday demands
No bread nor pasta be consumed;
Thus, stores have made their...

A Seder On Zoom
We’re having a Seder on Zoom
And Passover foods we'll consume.
We’ll eat as a group
Things like matzoh ball soup
But our seats won’t be in the same room.
We’ll read the Haggadah to tell
Of the story we all...

Encounter
A squirrel dashed in front of me,
An acorn in his mouth.
I was heading up the block;
He was going south.
He on four feet, I on two;
Each, though, in a hurry.
I’d increased my pace a bit;
He was...

Pre-Seder Afternoon
The holiday’s at sunset
So the afternoon before
Is time for eating food
We won’t be eating anymore.
No bread or beer or pasta -
Not a bagel for a week!
I’ve been doing this since childhood,
So there’ll be no need...

Matzoh
Some say it tastes like cardboard
While others think it’s great.
The way you feel about it
Isn’t worth a big debate.
For if your background’s Jewish
You’ll consume it for a week,
In honor of tradition
Or acknowledgement you seek.
I like...

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...
