“Sang to me/The sea shanty/Of his mother’s/Last, and eventual/Wave”
“May the new orchard bloom, and the First Fruits be blessed”
“We gather around our tables/Singing songs of joy”
“With the start of each season/We have the chance to plant kindness and acceptance”
“We will not enter our promised land/If we strike the rock within.”
“To those who have tried to be peaceful/and have seen no results”
“have we become so familiar that we have memorized the Great Lie”
‘The Flag / I raised at dawn / As a college student / In my uniform / Pressed the night before”
“I once thought / that if I studied enough, I’d be able to understand You”
Poem by Israeli peace activist on war with Gaza
