Gershon Wolf Poet Rictameter

Sabbath Peace

Sabbath 
Her Peace Descends
Welcome, Angels and Men
Candle Flames Bright, Radiant Light
Braided Loaves of Bread; Closed eyes, Blessings said
Delicacies before Guests Spread
Songs sung, Thoughts to Inspire
Grace Soars Higher
Shalom


                        'Shalom' means 'Peace,' (lit: Completion, Wholeness)

Andrea Dietrich July 7, 2019 at 5:28 PM very nice.For me it was both about Christianity and Judaism. were you mixing images of both religions. Gershon Wolf July 7, 2019 at 8:17 PM Everything is according to the interpretation and the interpreter -- dreams and poetry. So, why not both religions? I'm pleased you felt this way and read it this way. Thank you, Andrea :) gw
