Starry Heavens
Starry heavens so endlessly far My sparkling stunning dazzling star How I wonder what you are Your radiance is dizzying and awesome You make any closed, broken heart Break open and begin to blossom Unlike nature your beauty doesn’t lie In your grandeur you push and prod man To ponder and to begin asking why In your brilliance when you stud the …
Soul of Jerusalem
Land of JerusalemSo many hills and valleysAnd ups and downWhen you want to get around It can be dizzying when youYou just want to goDown the street to town Some of the hills are steepSome are deepSome streets so tight you have to creep But there’s always a depressionAnd if you stay on the road …

You Are A Sukkah
If there is a place called truthIt’s called a SukkahWhere we live in a booth The walls are flimsyAnd you have leaves as a roof You see through and throughNot just to the starsBut to the essence of you Who are you?You are not white or blackNor tan, brown, or blueYou are not the image …
