MOMENTS DIVINE

Embrace each moment as a diamond rare

For in the blink of an eye the next one might not be there

Love each moment as life beyond compare

For in an instant ,of the next one you might not be aware

Cherish each moment with a wholehearted hug

For one might not feel the next one's tug

Treasure each moment and be fully present

For from the next one might be wholly absent

Gift yourself with a moment full of meaning

Which is a billboard that reveals your life's leaning

Capture your moments within your soul

For they are many of the parts that make you whole

And who knows for if you see moments as dew drops Divine

G-D may still keep you there for the rain and the shine

THE GREATNESS IN GIVING

THE GREATNESS IN GIVING
A TRIBUTE TO MY PARENTS FOR THEIR UPCOMING 48TH WEDDING ANNIVERSARY

YOU DO NOT KNOW THE MEANING OF THE WORD TAKE

FOR YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL ,DIVINE AND NEVER FAKE

YOU GIVE WITHOUT REGRET

MAKING AN IMPRESSION WE WILL NEVER FORGET

YOUR LIVES ARE BEACONS OF GIVING

SHINING THE PATH TO THE DIVINE WAY OF LIVING

YOU ARE PARENTS WHICH EMBODY THE DIVINE

NEVER GIVING UP ON YOUR CHILDREN NO MATTER HOW OUT OF LINE

YOU SEE THE GOOD WITHOUT LETTING UP

NO MATTER THE TEMPTATION YOU NEVER GET FED UP

YOU EMPOWER THOSE AROUND YOU TO STRIVE FOR MORE

AS YOUR SUBLIME GIVING EXPOSES YOUR DIVINE CORE

WORDS CANNOT TRULY EXPRESS THE POWER OF OUR LOVE

THANK YOU FOR THE EXAMPLE THAT G-D IS HERE AND NOT JUST UP ABOVE

ISRAEL TAKE HEART

YOU WERE CONCEIVED IN ETERNITY AND BIRTHED DIVINE

YOU ARE TESTED EVERY GENERATION TO LEARN HOW TO TRULY SHINE

YOUR EXISTENCE AGAINST ALL ODDS ,THERE IS NO GREATER SIGN

THAT YOUR JOURNEY'S DESIGN CAN ONLY BE IN THE REALM OF THE DIVINE

NO MATTER WHAT YOU DO THOSE THAT LIVE IN THE NIGHT

WILL ATTEMPT TO STEER YOU AWAY FROM THE ENDURING LIGHT

BUT YOURS IS BEAUTY AND GREATNESS BEYOND THEIR SIGHT

FOR YOU ARE FORGED OF HEAVENLY MIGHT

TRANSCEND THE FLEETING BRAVADO AND FOSSIL RHETORIC

FOR THEY WILL DISAPPEAR AND YOU WILL CONTINUE TO BE HISTORIC

SO ISRAEL REMEMBER YOUR DESTINY AND TAKE HEART

THEN YOU WILL FIND THE STRENGTH AND POWER

TO ENSURE THAT THOSE WHO STAY IN THE DARK WILL ETERNALLY COWER

THE BURDENS WE BEAR

Many talk of the burdens they bear

They beseech the Heavens with cries of"Its not fair"

To find a day without a complaint is indeed rare

Such are the troubles of some that for others they have no second to spare

And for them the light at the end of the tunnel is but a far off glare

Some make a choice and give themselves a dare

Not to give in but to focus on that about which they positively care

To rejuvenate their step in the face of troubles fanfare

To find the the thread no matter the tear

They allow themselves to share with G-D the burden they bear

So then the light is not at the end of the tunnel but wherever they declare

IF I WERE ISRAEL

If I were Israel I would feel immense power

If I were Israel I would treasure every hour 

If I were Israel before all enemies I would not cower

If I were Israel I would cherish its beauty even down to the smallest flower

If I were Israel its fruits for me always sweet never sour

If I were Israel I would stand firm through any storm flood or mere shower

If I were Israel above all obstacles I would tower

If I were Israel I would be joyous and never dour

Yet Israel I am Land People and Torah no further need I scour

Israel only with Hashem true eternal Power

SHABBAT

SHABBAT

A majestic dimension where there is no weekday mask

A time where we reignite our eternal task

Unhindered by the facades of the rat race

Getting in tune with our Divine pace

We bask in the warmth of G-Ds hallowed light

Releasing our infinite potential harnessing G-D's glorious might

Recharging our souls while maintaining our miracle sight

Shabbat our smidgen of Heaven on earth

Our reality check full of holiness of which there is no dearth

I think about Israel

I think about Israel and all the debate

I think about those who question Israel the state

I think about those who feel they decide Israel's fate

My decision is that no one will make me irate

For every day I walk this land I remain victorious

Fulfilling prophecies ,what could be more glorious?

For every day I walk this land I validate our past

On the wings of a promise Divine I know we will always last
