Based on a true story...

A genius he was Master of the tradition Knew it all by heart Magician on a mission To imbue audiences with a love of the Divine Quoting passage after passage so inspiring, so sublime Toured the Torah world Wowed every kind of crowd Each word a flight of fancy Given over softly, but proud... His oldest son was asked a question What's the most important value in your father's life? A moment he paused, then unleashed this retort "Father tells me to hush when he's listening to the weather report."
