Mondays
Mondays
By Margalit Goldkin
Slowly I open my eyes reluctant to the light,
Out of bed right away! even though I really want to stay
Turn on the bright light and open the door
A furry annoying creature appears before me
I'm too tired so i just grumble and she leaves me alone
Taking out my breakfast, the waffle and yogurt
And stumble back to my room
Quickly I dress throwing on this and that but i need to go soon
Putting in my airpods and listening to the songs fill my ears
I'm so sad that there is no moon
I yawn in distress
Grabbing my toothbrush and brushing my teeth as i pack my bag for school
Walking to school when it's nice out my energy is amazing!
I sometimes start singing and then someone sees me,
I laugh because i dont care im a fool
Throwing down my stuff by my locker
Organization is not my thing
Getting my siddur,
And saying bye bye to the evil rectangle
I wish I didn't have that “thing”
Going through the classes are slower and slower
Especially in this classroom heat we all look quite flush
Finally the bells ring at 4:20
There is a sound almost a rush
Of students pushing through mrs plotisas office to grab there phone and leave
We all are quite happy to be out
The walk home is always peaceful
Finally home, i throw my things down and grab a ball
I shoot hoops until the sun starts to set and head in
I'm tired from the long day but start to do some work.
Working, working working,
for about thirty minutes than i give up
Make some dinner and head to my room to watch tv
at 11ish i finally decide to sleep phone is plugged in across the house
repeat, repeat, repeat
They Will Never Understand
They Will Never Understand
By Anna Greenberg
Many of my friends aren’t Jewish nor do they care about it.
but they will never understand it
They will never understand the smell of fresh homemade challah.
They will never understand the sound of the shofar on Rosh Hashanah.
They will never understand having Friday night shabbat with your family.
They will never understand what it’s like to understand Hebrew
or to have your Bar or Bat Mitzvah.
But I do
I understand it all
that’s what I believe to be the miracle of Judaism.
