Passover Wishes

The years have 
    come and gone 
  and we are gathered here 
          today 
to celebrate the 
   end of our enslavement 
    We can only hope that all slaves
              will soon be free 
And that they will become  
     joyous free people
At the Seder table 
Where Messiahs have come and gone 
And prophets true and false 
have spoken their words 
   We hope for the best 
for the Jewish people 
    and for the rest of the world's people
Light and love 
   to all of you out there in the darkness
Peace - sisters and brothers
