It’s Purim and St. Patrick’s Day
And
if you’re up for noshin’,
Have
corned beef, cabbage and dessert –
Some
bright green hamantaschen.
For
those of you who do not know,
This
pastry, always eaten
By
Jews on Purim represents
The
man who had them beaten.
His
name was Haman and when he
Was
finally defeated,
The
bakers made a special treat,
Fruit-filled
or poppy-seeded.
These
sweets are shaped like Haman’s hat,
3-sided
(and delicious!)
But
since today’s St. Patrick’s Day,
It
would be most judicious…
To
make them green to honor both
The
Irish and the Jews
And
washed down with a Guinness,
I’d
give 5-star-plus reviews!
