SHUL MY HOME
March 28, 2024
All time total visits: 2079
Shul is where
our life cycle takes PLACE
There with love and devotion
Hashem we EMBRACE
Everything in life
starts and ends HERE
Truly must treat our Shul
with respect and CARE
The place of our Bris
where we were NAMED
There Hashem's glory
is always PROCLAIMED
We pray there daily
three TIMES
Mostly there on time
not SOMETIMES
After a busy week
Shabbos comes ALONG
Excited to enter Shul
where we BELONG
We pray to song
the Rabbi SPEAKS
Dressed in our finest
special day of the WEEK
The Ark is opened
the Torah is REMOVED
We stand in awe
our souls FUSED
The בעל קורא reads
every פסוק out LOUD
His words are heard
throughout the CROWD
The tune is beyond
heavenly and SWEET
Concentrating on the words
till the reading is COMPLETE
Holidays in Shul
are so SPECIAL
The joyous atmosphere
is so BENEFICIAL
Musical recital of Hallel
is so UPLIFTING
Can feel my soul
heavenly DRIFTING
On Rosh Hashona
the Shofar BLASTS
It's impression
forever LASTS
On Yom Kippur
all dressed in WHITE
An army of angels
what a special SIGHT
Our sins
finally FORGIVEN
for all misconduct
that was FORBIDDEN
Soon Succos arrives
a time to REJOICE
In song and praise
we raise our VOICE
Four species
secure in our HAND
All bound together
in Hallel we STAND
Soon thereafter
Hoshano Rahbo ARRIVES
While circling the בימה
Every soul THRIVES
Not far behind
arrives Simchas TORAH
we sing and dance
jumping up to our בורא
Soon to the Torah
all men are CALLED
Blessing Hashem HAPPILY
all are ENTHRALLED
Soon comes Pesach
time of our REDEMPTION
Celebrating our freedom
from bondage & AFFLICTION
Miracles of the plagues
parting of the SEA
Manna in the desert
for a people finally FREE
Headed to Sinai
commandments to RECEIVE
Nationhood awarded
to the people that BELIEVE
Our commitment resolute
Unwavering with DEVOTION
To Hashem we are dedicated
for we are His CHOSEN
So life circles on
round and ROUND
To Hashem we remain
forever BOUND
