That Time of Year

It's that time of year
  that Jews hold very dear
Called the 'High Holidays'
  followed by Sukkoth 
  a sort of 'Harvest Ballet'

A good time to take stock
  of how one uses the clock
To give the schedule a tweak
  to change up one's week

So, I'll be posting a lot less
  Let's hope for the best...
Then perhaps come back strong ~
  Until then, good luck and so long!


 ~  Here's to everyone's health and happiness! ~

I am late wishing you Shana Tova! To you and your lovely family. Today, will do some reading in the Torah! Many will miss you. But we are not on the planet to serve poets! Acts of kindness for others do matter, Baruch HaShem, Panagiota (Jewish nickname, Talia)
