Ruach Elohim
Dear Friends,

As April turns to May
the days seem to roll together, 
each day it seems is marked 
by continued stormy weather.  
I find myself thinking 
in rhyme way too often 
I guess it’s just my way 
of coping with this problem. 
Writing is my way 
of freeing up my mind 
and traveling far away 
from corona virus time. 
I pray that we will all be safe 
and come through this horror soon 
because if not I may just live
alone in my zoom room.  
As the days turn into weeks 
and months and maybe years, 
May health and joy and happiness 
soon replace these fears. 
Our journey from slavery continues 
wandering through the desert sun
Until we receive Torah
And our redemption comes!

Namaste in Health,

Reb Lisa

POETRY CORNER
Quarantine Blues by Lisa Levine 

I’ve been home for six weeks
Feels like three years
Sequestered away from
Corona virus fears
Theres a sick feeling inside me
From being so isolated
Too many zoom room meetings
And trips to the refrigerator

My head is exploding from
too much stay at home
And even though I’m fairly busy
my anxiety is overblown, 
The only thing that helps me
Is writing and a hot bath
I’ve the quarantine blues
And I have got it really bad.

They say it might be months
Before we are set free
and in the meantime I have to say
I wonder what will come of me
If you see me on Facebook
or playing Words too frequently
It’s because
I’ve got the quarantine blues 
They’ve taken hold of me. 

I’ll go plant and weed the garden
And do some online Yoga
And before too long just maybe
I’ll get off my butt and Zumba
Meditation helps and Mussar
but the screen time is a killer
I’ve got the Quarantine Blues
My brothers and my sisters.

Every cloud has a silver lining
And I’m grateful for the quiet
Airplanes, trains and cars
just seem like foreign objects
My mask and my computer
Are my vehicle for travel
yes, I have the quarantine blues
As I watch the world,
Unravel.
