"I am from"
by Cydney Platt '21
I am
From celebrating Passover, Rosh Hashanah, and Yom Kippur
From apples and honey, to no food at all
From lots of songs to lots of candles
I am from a whole different world
I am
From New Years Eve, and Thanksgiving
From lots fun on Friday, and temple on Sunday
From English all the time
I am
From Rabbis and Jews
From services, classes, and holidays
All of the latest Jewish pop stars
I am from many different traditions
I am
From singing in the car to listening to the news
From Pandora, Netflix, and singing
From watching sports to playing sports
I am
From Latkes, and Matzah
From seas of love and support to countries of hate
From singing at lots of services, reading Hebrew, and more
I am
From school five days a week
From switching classes every hour
From so many different types of friends
I am from the U.S. and Israel
From celebrating Passover, Rosh Hashanah, and Yom Kippur
From apples and honey, to no food at all
From lots of songs to lots of candles
I am from a whole different world
I am
From New Years Eve, and Thanksgiving
From lots fun on Friday, and temple on Sunday
From English all the time
I am
From Rabbis and Jews
From services, classes, and holidays
All of the latest Jewish pop stars
I am from many different traditions
I am
From singing in the car to listening to the news
From Pandora, Netflix, and singing
From watching sports to playing sports
I am
From Latkes, and Matzah
From seas of love and support to countries of hate
From singing at lots of services, reading Hebrew, and more
I am
From school five days a week
From switching classes every hour
From so many different types of friends
I am from the U.S. and Israel
