Hag Sameach
Rules of the Sukkah
Contributed by Rabbi Arthur E. Gould
You can build it very small1
You can build it very tall2
You can build it very large3
You can build it on a barge
You can build it on a ship4
Or on a roof but please don't slip5
You can build it in an alley6
You shouldn't build it in a valley7
You can build it on a wagon8
You can build it on a dragon9
You can make the skakh of wood10
Woud you, could you, yes you should
Make the skakh from leaves of tree
You shouldn't bend it at the knee11
Build your Sukkah tall or short
No Sukkah is built in the Temple Court
You can build it somewhat soon
You cannot build it in the month of June12
If your Sukkah is well made
You'll have the right amount of shade 13
You can build it very wide
You can not build it on its side
Build if your name is Jim
Or Bob or Sam or even Tim
Build it if your name is Sue14
Do you build it, yes you do!
From the Sukkah you can roam
But you should treat it as your home15
You can invite some special guests
Don't stay in it if there are pests
You can sleep upon some rugs
Don't you build it where there's bugs
In the Sukkah you should sit
And eat and drink but never
