Here's to Tu B'Av!

7/22/2013

 
Here's to the day when sisters danced in vineyard circles wearing each other's finest white dresses. The day when matches were made and the tribes were allowed to intermarry, when Binyamin was forgiven for some serious sins, when those destined to die in the desert realized they could step outa their graves and LIVE!......Happiest Tu B'Av tu Alll!

Tu B'Av

When the month of the father
meets the moon of the mothers
and their merger 
makes for circles
in vineyards
of lovers

When ancient consciousness 
is called back in
to its rightful bliss
as the most joyous
of all days 

Then we will begin 
to wake from our graves
to inter-marry the tribes
to forgive the unforgivable 
And share our most enviable 

To dance unembarrassed
and share our abundance
and point incredulous
at the Divine Presence
that dances among us.
