From Whoville To The Grinch, Firk You Poem by Joe Rosochacki

Miracle on 34th Street did happen but 10 block to the north,
The Macy’s Parade did happen as well as one Broadway Production,
Broadway workers,
stagehands,
-have struck to drive profits and sales south,
But the musical containing the Grinch was ordered back by a judge’s injunction.

The words that promoted Christmas spirit,
Were handed down by a Jewish-American judge,
Her words were short but had some bite and were tough,
'I'm going to grant the injunction' against the lockout,
State Supreme Court Justice Helen Freedman said Wednesday.
'I think one Grinch in town is enough.'

That sure made Dr. Seuss made,
Happy where he may be,
That the only play,
On Broadway here,
In New York City.

And everyone child both young and old,
For all that glitters in not always gold,
For children that were Buddhist, Muslim, Christian or Jew,
The message brought by the people of Whoville,
That there is no restriction spreading kindness,
And peace to all men and woman too,
From the people that have good intention and good will.
