For Cookie ❤
I decided to make a dreidel
But I didn’t have the slightest notion
How to even begin this endeavor
Still, I wanted it filled with emotion
So I grabbed a block of wood
And began to chisel away
Hoping to carve perfection
To celebrate Hanukkah’s days
I painted on the Hebrew letters
Purple, green, red and blue, to begin
“A great miracle occurred there”
Symbolized by nun, gimmel, hay and shin
I thought I did a pretty good job
With this new found toy, I played
Now I pass it on to you, my friend
With love, from my heart, it was made
Writing Prompt – Dreidels and Ladles – Day 16/31 (I confess, I left out the ladles lol)
