This actually happened to me in December, 1977...
There I was in Tel Aviv
on my way to work
Sweltering Middle-East sun
a most unwelcome perk
December morning's
dusty, choking heat
creaky, crowded buses
melting asphalt streets
Yet as I walked the final
blocks to my daily grind
I found myself a-humming
season's songs in mind:
'Silver Bells' and 'Silent Night'
the words seeped from my lips
Was I in the 'Jewish State'
~ or had my brain played tricks
