This month we are introducing something new, a Kids Corner. This space will be reserved for stories, poems, games, recipes, and other creative submissions by children in our community. If you, or a child under 13 in your life, is interested in participating, please contact editor Barbara Dab at barbaradab@jewishnashville.org.
This first submission is a poem by Naomi Becker. Here in her own words are some interesting facts about her:
- I am Naomi Becker, and I am a human
- I am nine
- I go to Lockeland Elementary (LDC, Lockeland Design Center)
- I do swimming
- I CARE SO MUCH ABOUT SNAILS AND DRAGONS
- I am also good at tech
CHERRY LONGLEG LITEE
Head of the Funding Committee
said to his Chief
A bad disbelief
That spread throughout the city
Cherry Longleg Litee
Had a black kitty
But then he said
“Off with your head!”
And killed his cat named Mitee
Cherry Longleg Litee
Was dead, but it was no pity
No one was sad
Because he was so bad
So the shiva was just for the kitty
