A Chanukah Tale

I met a young Jew it's sad to say Who wasn't taught Why or how to pray I choked back a tear as I lit festive candles dear 'Gaze into the flames, son Their warmth brings God near'

Ah, so tender and pretty; so glad you are selfless and always teaching.

A beautiful and tender hearted poem, Gershon. May God come near in this celebration of Chanukah for you - in this season of lights and miracles. Blessings to you!
