Atonement

A time for atonement is finally here,
where Jews become reflective about 
their lives,
wondering if they have been too critical
or permissive with lies,
Forgiveness and a change of heart come into play,
Purging, and cleansings help to ensure better days,
The awareness to atone is huge and monumental,
wiping the slates clean from being harsh ad judgemental,
The mind becomes free from all its prejudices and unfair assumptions,
A day of atonement allows spirits their own liberations and ascensions.
