The following poem was written to Danyelle Shapiro and read to her at her Bat Mitzvah celebration at the Kotel (Western Wall) by her friends on bus 96
It was only a few days ago,
that we arrived at JFK
and here we are in Jerusalem,
on your very special day
We couldnt be more proud of you, Dalya,
you are sababa, beautiful and more
we hope that this say is one you remember
as you pass through life's each and every door
Mazel Tov! you are a Jewish woman!
at the ripe old age of 22
its never too late to embark on a journey
especially one that is precious and new
We are excited for your after party
and ready to dance with socks on our feet
The fiesta will be definitely be a blast
your presence alone is truly a treat
This trip already has been amazing
Bus 96 has grown so tight
If anyone were to mess with you
we would def back you up in a fight
We wish we has more time to get you a gift
But this trip has been short on time
So we decided to write you a lil something
and we hope you are happy with this rhyme
Felicitaciones, Congratsm Mazel!
We have watched our little girl grow before our eyes
We all love you so much Danyelle,
We wish that you remain happy, healthy and wise
