A Jewish musician named Birge
Appears to be right on the verge
Of leaving this life
And all of its strife --
Start rehearsing the funeral dirge.
My title has two puns. First, a child's Chanukah toy -- 'dreidel' -- to replace cradle. Next, 'grave' as an adjective means solemn or serious, like a dirge.
