Wishing you a joy
So merry
Under mistletoe’s
Red berries,
And a sparkle
In your heart
As holidays
A cheer impart.
Merry Christmas to all who celebrate it!
Merry Berry
Holidays
Blush Blessing

May your day be lit
By sun
And new grown things
On path to home
And love within.
May the closing year
Bring calm
And blushing joy
And flowered hope
For what begins.

The Best Tradition
Photo: R. Yehuda
The doorbell rings
The gate stays open
As they trickle, stream, come in.
Sisters, brothers, nieces, cousins,
Nephews, parents, aunts and uncles,
And new additions to the scene.
Candles lit and babies cuddled,
In the kitchen tied-up aprons swirl
As busy hands ready cuisine.
A phone is passed:
A distant caller
Hellos each loved one from the screen.
The rooms are filled
The hearts are fuller.
Another year of treasured family din.

A Child’s Cheer
Photo: Chagit Moriah-Gibor
As chilly nights
Churn cold winds
And unclothed trees
Hold branches
In a yearn
To huddle near,
Cherish the fleeting
Flowing moments
Of memory’s chalices
Filling with cheer,
As a child
Chants a prayer
And gently lights
History’s challenge
To despair
Lack
And fear.
