Such exquisite imagery throughout! I think the important thing is that you were inspired and it caused you to write a fantastic poem! I love this one for it is universal in its own right although it may have been specific for you! I think that is a good mark of a grand poem when it touches the heart strings of the reader! sam

Strong and decisive in your feeling you do not waiver....powerful.

Tzippy,

Who it is, is not at all important. What is important is that you have done it with loving care, with a spirt of freedom, and it is very telling in its impact. Pouring out of the soul is invariably the essence. Just loved the flow and the word-arrangemnet.

I have also attempted to answer your query on the eating of sin titled : Verily Eats Sin?

What strikes me about this poem is the amount of passion the speaker possesses. Passion is very much needed in the face of the adversity facing Israel.

It's a good poem - and I like happy endings.

Excellent form and flow, Tzippy!

Being honest, I don't agree with all the messages, but I do appreciate the poetic value.

I thought I would try something......

אני רואה בך ידיד ..... אני מתפלל לאלוהים להשגיח על שתי המדינות במהלך טרופים אלה.

I hope it doesn't say..."your hair looks like eggs"

This was a beautiful peom....but how could i have expected less!

You completely change the connotation of soldier

Speechless

I am not sure who you wrote this for but these words were like a dagger piercing the heart. I have never been so uplifted by anything in my life. This poem makes me want to go out and conquer, fight the good fight and nudges me to do what God desires me to do and the manner in which he wishes me to do. Simply put, these words are overwhelming. I have never read or even heard anything like this before in my life. Wow! Not sure what else to say at this point. Incredible!
