Poem

Shavuos, a holiday with two different faces
     One in an uncultivated desert
     The other on a cultivated farm...

  On Shavuos itself Jews soar to the highest of heights
     But this poem's about the run-up, pre-flight
  For it's all about how well you prepare
     that determines the outcome when you get there

  God whisked Israel from Egypt to Sinai in 45 days
     Then gave them the Torah without undue delay
  One face of Shavuos is therefore called 'Weeks'
     Jews count seven of them, then on Sinai God speaks... 

  The Festival of First Fruits takes five years to evolve
     For the first three, there's no touching a tree
        In the fourth year, that fruit tree is holy
  In the fifth year, in Jerusalem, Israel partakes, finally 

  What is the reason for these two different faces
     God didn't tell us, He left us no traces
  But I think there's a lesson: We reap what we sow
     ~ The longer we anticipate, the more we grow
