Another year, another summary of the news
Just a wrap-up to read and hopefully amuse
So enjoy your m’shaloch monos from us to our friends
And imy’H the big headline this year will be “Galus Ends!”
A tragedy happened out in the Ocean Atlantic
When Captain Coward abandoned the sinking Gaavatanic
The US, embarrassed, had to call Iran on the phone
“Oh pretty please, won’t you return our drone?”
The biggest party since Shushan, redefining excess
That would be in Britain, where William found a princess
Howling winds made trees bend and houses lean
And streets flooded on account of Irene
Idealists protested by living in a smelly pigsty
“Not fair you’re rich, not me!” shouted those of Occupy
The GOP contest is all business and no game
Just ask the losers, like Perry or Cain
Speaking of fights that make the hair stand on your flesh
I hope everyone calmed down in sleepy Beit Shemesh
Few events we remember where we were and when
Such as hearing about the shooting of Osama Bin laden
Whomever is leading by the singing of the fat lady
That’s who won the Big Game- not Tom Brady
As I write this rhyme, outside it’s a beautiful day
Because this year Old Man Winter is MIA
Much hatzlocho, brocho & nachas should come your way
“Ah Freilechen Purim!” is all that’s left to say
Simchos this year, there should be lots of
Enjoy the Yom Tov! Your friends from Matzav

Don’t give up your day job just yet.
cute poem!great talent!
And streets flooded on account of Irene. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! 3 Frum people died because of that flood! Ha ha ha ha! Way to go! Very funny!
Not sure if its hashkafacally appropiate
Cute, but unfortunately we live in a world where the writer had to leave out some of the biggest headlines because they’re inappropriate for a Torah Newssite
Very cute!
Enjoyed your very cute poem!
