Â
may your memories be a blessing
may we live now to bless your memoriesÂ
Â
“we were all at Sinai”
Â
but too many of youÂ
fixed your
eyes uponÂ
The Mountain
Â
so desperately thatÂ
generationsÂ
you could
not dare imagine
areÂ
at this moment uncontrollablyÂ
weeping
Â
can youÂ
look up
and
see
the thunderÂ
can you embrace
the unwritten
time
the unfinished rhyme
of g-d’s perfect storm
Â
of your unseen ancestors
raining down
breaking apart the floodgates of heaven?
Â
torah is a teardropÂ
torah is a wave
torah is change
we are change
Â
Heavenward
