HANUKKAH
by Sam Evans
For Hanukkah things are never bad,
we get presents from mom and dad.
We play dreidel and eat yummy gelt,
as the candles slowly melt.
We make latkes and then we say a prayer,
for the fun that we all share.
And when the night is finally through,
the house is no longer a zoo.
But in the back of our mind,
we know there are seven more nights of this kind.
So in the days to come,
we'11 remember to have lots of fun.
Because Hanukkah is only once a year,
and it brings along plenty of cheer.
