More DescriptionHolidays are what make our lives livable. Some of my best memories are celebrating Passover, Channukah, and Purim with my family. Herein is my modest contribution to the liturgy of these holidays and others. This book is intended for anyone who wishes that there were more holiday prayers reflecting contemporary values but still employing the traditional Hebrew cadences. Here you'll find my original poetic compositions in Hebrew, introduced and translated (creatively) into English with notes for people who want to delve more deeply into their meaning. If some of these poems strike a chord, great! If none of the poems speaks to you, I still hope and pray that upon reading them you become mobilized to compose prayers that are as meaningful to you as these are to me.
