“Being Jewish / shapes and shades my poetry / forms and reforms my soul…”

“even the / darkest, coldest winter still gives way to spring…”

“No words can describe it. / The first time I held her on my chest…”

“We will collect ourselves; / We will gather in; / We will reassemble…”

“As the new moon of Adar II rises we give thanks for this double dose of delight…”

“I know You’re up there, /but I’ve been down here. / Do you see the things I see?”

“Your dancing words / ground me…”

“May we all drive well through sun and clouds, and whatever else God has in store– and may we all, soon and safely, arrive.”

“Prayer, the sacred blessing where all our limbs can be rewoven / returning us into our whole…”

“Soon, the glory of the divine will appear / so naturally, and so inconspicuously…”
