Dedicated to Linda Hirschhorn and inspired by her sermon on Unetaneh Tokef 5765
Who will Live by passion’s fire
By spark and flame, by heat and desire
Who will survive by dive and depth
Living by beats beneath the breast
Who will Live by peace, not sword
By the Love that mends what is torn
Who will dance wildly with Life
Steeped in bliss and pure deLight
Who will live Life fully nourished
Allowing one’s whole self to flourish
Who will quench Life’s great thirsts
In all one’s experiences, fully immersed
Whose Earth will shake beneath one’s feet
Each day with ecstasy one meets
Who will Live this way, who?
Go on, here and now
I dare you to
