Psalms In The Heart

  Rosh Hashanah Cry The shofar breaks the silent night, It calls us back to love, to Light. The world kli trembles, torn apart, Yet hope still burns within the heart. The ego shouts, “It’s mine, not yours!” But faith above reason reopens the doors. Together as one, we rise and we pray, That love will be written and never decay. Creator, bind us, soul to soul, Repair the vessel, make it whole. A new year dawns, the heavens sing, Inscribe us in love beneath Your wing.

  Rosh Hashanah Cry of the Ten The shofar breaks silence, it pierces the air, A cry from our hearts that we all must bear. Israel rises, one voice, one song, To crown our Creator, to Whom we belong. We tremble and yearn, for the year now renewed, Each prayer is a vessel, each tear is imbued. Not for ourselves, but the whole world to see, That “The Lord is our God” for eternity. Our sins we confess, our pride we let fall, The King takes His throne in the hearts of us all. The judgment is heavy, yet mercy shines through, For He seeks our return, to make us anew. So, friends, my beloved, my brothers, my kin, Let’s rise above reason, let faith flood within. May our Ten be the spark that ignites every soul, Till Israel glorifies Him, and the world is made whole.

 The year begins, the mask thins, and the heart hears a call in the bone. The serpent grins, counting wins, “Keep it mine, keep it safe, keep it alone.” But we’ve seen that trick, it burns us quick, so we gather the shards we can find. We cut the slick, ego’s pick, and choose the King above the mind. I am my Beloved— that’s the shove-ed— annul my will before His own. Then love is covenanted, fear is woven, and Malchut rises to the throne. Write us to life, cut off the knife of tail-chasing questions—“Who? What?” A lion’s tail, faith above veil, we follow Hesed through the clot. Shofar breath, sweetens death, judgment turns to mercy’s tone. Black and white, we sign the light, good writing carved in living stone. Empty space, we lift in grace, Romemut fills the hollowed cup. Pomegranate case, seeded place, every lack says, “Friend, rise up.” Not one by one— that’s never done— we bind as one society. Shoulder to shoulder, warmer, bolder, we cancel exile’s piety. Crown Hi...

 The year begins, the ego cries, “Keep it mine, believe the lies.” But we choose the crown, the King above, Harsh to the self, yet filled with love. Shofar sound, it cuts the night, Turns the judgment into light. Empty hearts, like seeds we bring, Pomegranate full—faith above, we cling. Not alone, but hand in hand, One society takes its stand. Brutal truth, the vow we make— Unconditional love for heaven’s sake.

1. Awakening – The Point in the Heart I wander through life with hollow eyes, Drunk on illusions, feeding on lies. But a thorn in my chest will not let me sleep, A hunger eternal, a yearning so deep. I thought it was madness, I thought it was pain, But it whispered of truth I could not contain. “Seek Me in love, not in gold or in lust, Build in the Ten, in connection and trust.” 2. Despair – Revelation of Evil I tried to rise, but the ego screamed, It shattered my hope, devoured my dream. Every prayer mocked, every deed cursed, The will to receive showed its teeth at its worst. I saw my reflection, a beast in the glass, Laughing at virtue, spitting at class. And I cried, “Creator, why was I made? To drown in the filth of the ego’s blade?” 3. First Light – Faith Above Reason In the pit of despair, a spark appeared, Silent and small, yet sharp and seared. Not knowledge, not proof, not reason’s chain, But a whisper of love that broke my pain. “I am with you,” the silence said, “...

The First Degree I choke on the chains of my own desire, Hands burned bloody from chasing the fire. Every joy fades, every dream dies, My heart’s a graveyard of broken lies. I scream to the void—nothing replies, Till shame cuts deep and opens my eyes. I see the friends, I see the flame, A force of love I cannot name. The ego claws, it will not let go, It curses the path, it hates to bestow. But in the rubble, a whisper is heard— Not in my voice, but in His word. “Rise above reason, trust what you feel, The drop of love you give is real. It will not be lost, it cannot decay, It’s eternal Light in a fleeting day.” So I bow to the friends, my fortress, my guide, Their hearts are the vessel where I abide. Through brutal fire, through faith I’m remade, Unconditional love is the first step laid.

In Pennsylvania’s embrace, at Fox Run’s sacred ground, Where hearts converge, where love is found, The Creator’s light, a beacon bright, Guides our souls through day and night. From JR’s eyes, the hugs unfold, Friends like family, warm and bold, A spectacle divine, the Creator’s art, Painting joy within each heart. Lance speaks of love, a tender flame, Each friend’s embrace, no one the same, Yearning to unite, above the strife, Rising as one to a higher life. Ella’s tale begins at journey’s start, A team of care, with open heart, Bananas, water, love’s sweet deed, A trip that meets the soul’s deep need. The rain, a downpour, fierce and wild, Yet halts as if by heaven styled, The moment we arrive, the skies clear wide, Nature’s bow to the Creator’s pride. That first night’s circle, voices raised, Songs of unity, our hearts ablaze, One family formed, hearts intertwined, A merging of souls, pure and kind. Ella’s friends, in awe they stand, On gloomy days, the land so grand, Nature’s beaut...
