From Aleph to Tav
The world was created.
From Tav to Aleph
All is returned.
We sing Your praises
In shimmering letters
Unbounded by the tarnish
Of this world:
Refreshed and renewed.
An acrostic
Prayed in reverse,
As Shabbat letters
Restore.
Teshuvah.
We will return,
Through the Musaf,
The Addition,
That is our life:
Our singular letter,
A Holy reprise,
Back into the Olam;
That deepest
Of silence.
Beyond the veil
Into the Infinite vastness
Of all that is Potential;
A welcoming back home
Embraced by the comfort
Of having been
Stilled.
