Friday Afternoon

Friday afternoon a Jew's week winds down
His affairs wrapped up before sundown
   
   He puts away his workman's dress
   Then dons his finery, his Sabbath best

Thank you for your wishes, WW, as a Happy Sabbath leads to a Happy Week, and then the two feed off of each other. Warm wishes, Gershon

Mighty fine poem, Mr. G! I can so relate. That blessed day of rest is a week's worth of mercy shown. Love and peace always.
