[Avodah] COVERING EYES FOR SH'MA

[Richard Wolberg]

My recent submission on "Covering Eyes for Sh'ma" inspired me to write the following poem:

 
The words of the Sh'ma cross every Jew's lips
From birth until death – never fail.
 
We cover our eyes to block everything out
And the spirit of God we inhale.
 
With each single word may our lives be enriched
Doing that which we know to be right.
 
It is then we uncover the meaning of prayer; 
Through action our souls will ignite.
