Jewish poem

Tallit katan
embracing me
soul and body
tzitzit dancing
on the wind

Four seasons, four directions
four levels
of unveiling
Torah
all HaShem

kippah crowning
my
head
doorway of the Shechina
Shabbos bride

Lekh l'cha
get out of yourself
let go of your delusions
your attachments

find shalom
in
ME

dance with

the Beloved
which is G!d
GO DEEP

As you daven
your soul
does the
hora

as it grows more deeply
in the heart
of HaShem
for they are
one and the same

is this not
JOY
?

tallit katan is the garment observant Jewish men wear that contain fringes (tzitzit) on the corners. This is worn at all times
and while the bulk of the garment (like an undershirt) is under clothes, the fringes are worn on the outside
"HaShem" means
"the Name" referring to G!d
Lekh l'cha is HaShem's command to Abraham to leave the land of his ancestors
the hora is a Jewish celebratory circle dance
kippah is synonomous with yarmulke (traditional head covering, which I wear)
