Nobility

Spirit aglow
A Jew is Nobility
A King in a Castle
From his merry beard
 To each ritual tassel

In Sabbath regalia
Blessing sparkling wine
Of learned Discourse enamored,
 In delicacies enshrined

His Wife by his side
Beaming Approbation
His Children tender shoots  
 Bright sprouts of Creation

No matter the locale
The era, the clime
The Jew is the Master
 Of Sabbath's unfettered Time

Very restful expressions gently given, Gershon. The Jew is the Master Of Sabbath's unfettered Time ... this is one spectacular verse. Wonderful spiritual poem. Love and joy always.

Freddie, God bless you for your visit of encouragement and hope. Through this poem, you get a real glimpse of who I am, or perhaps---more accurately, who and what I aspire to be. May you also know love, joy, and peace always. Thank you again, my friend. :) Gershon
