A Freilichen, Freilichen Purim

A laugh, a smile 
a funny jester
an uncle, an orphan 
a wife. 
A king alone 
without a 
queen 
A nation about to 
lose its life. 

The seeds of hope had 
been planted 
Still our fate seemed 
rather bleak
Until Mordechai so wise 
understood
the disguise 
and said,
Esther
it’s your turn to speak. 

A laugh, a smile 
a funny jester, 
a divine plan is finally 
revealed
A celebration 
for our Jewish nation 
longing to be 
healed

A freilichen, freilichen
Purim
to all of my family 
and friends. 
Thank you for all your 
love and care
May Hashem’s blessings, 
never ever end!
