For recently released hostages Romi Gonen, Emily Damar,and Doron Steinbrecher

“we pray for healing the minds and hearts of those newly released…”

“There are mystical colors spelling peace…”

“For more than a year now, / you’ve been with me everywhere…”

This powerful new song calls for the release of the hostages.

“And I wish I had special wipers / that could wipe away the tears, the pain, the anger…”

“Stop our hearts from breaking / put the broken pieces together again.”

This Hanukkah 2023 ritual acknowledges the incompleteness of joy while captives are being held.

This new poem uses the imagery of water through a faucet to capture the feeling of waiting for the captives to be released.

“We are looking for you. / We will not let you go.”
