How does a mitzvah become a poem, become a personal poem and renewed joy in the mitzvah?
Poems “can create new spaces in our interiors,” writes Garth Greenwell, “giving language to something that was mute before and generating something new”

Can you imagine that for 471 days, you never see the sunset or even the sky? And, all of a sudden, on day 472, you can? I hope one of the three hostages released yesterday stepped outside or stood at a hospital window and watched this beautiful sight. May all be free to watch the sunset. It's time.

In Haifa today. The street's empty. No one smiling. Even in this city that has suffered so many attacks, the ceasefire means nothing. Our hostages not home. One storeowner said "even if the hostages were home, Netanyahu has torn apart our country and made it into something we no longer recognize."

It is the ninth day of this terrible time. I am thinking about the children everywhere caught unprotected tonight. Today's poem "Exodus" is by Palestinian poet Taha Muhammad Ali. Written in 1983 from Ali's book, So What, translated by Peter Cole, Yahya Hijazi & Gabriel Levin.

Today is the 8th day of this terrible time. The only hope is for leaders with the imagination to let go of hate and open dialogue. The open, innocent dialogue of children as Israeli poet Ronni Somek describes in his poem "Dream Treaties" tr by Vivian Eden.
May there be peace. Amen.
