A poem and ritual for counting the Omer
“The Blue Heron / flies slow / through the wetlands…”
“Here we greet / The firmament / Of Heaven…”
“Roses bloom in radiant resistance / Dandelions scatter like wild prayers…”
“Beyond the realm of seven’s creation, / Perhaps it is there…”
“my memory reaches back / to the Galilee hills and carob trees…”
“Truth is, You are always a breath away…”
“Sing a new / Song / Together / We can / We will / Reach the other side…”
“Given any chance, we would never let a mother or a child die…”
“We grieve the indifference to / the hunger and need of millions…”
