We have gathered
here
this evening
to celebrate
the miracle of Shabbat
The week has been
difficult
But hope shines
in the light from
the candles
we will find peace here
Listen to voices, flutes and tambourines
Ancient tunes – which have stood the test of
time and provide
a link to eternity
Tears and sorrow
are transformed
to smiles and laughter
Peace – like a mighty
river
Flows from the heavens
Eyes which have seen
sorrow
now shine with purest joy!
Good Shabbes

Beautiful poem about Shabbat. I hope it’s read sometime at a Shabbat service.
