“We are here together.  We survived the rain together.  / It was not a deluge and no trees fell…” 

Listen to Karen Webber’s ‘Frying a Soulful Latke,’ a Hanukkah poem from her series ‘Enkindle.’

“As the candles descend / we are reminded / that nothing is /permanent / other than the Love of Hashem…”

“Peace does not look like a dove / or a palm branch in the Old City…” 

“I raise my voice In the song of prayer…”

” The painting is for grandparents, miles away, / who long for them…”

“How do we know what will outlive us? / We all want to be remembered our lives to count for something…”

“Each night is a small miracle unto itself…”

“Your story is not over; your life is larger than this. / We’re listening.”
