Candles dance on their menorah,
Happy to be burning bright!
All the children dance the hora,
Nimbly leaping with delight!
Understand the miracle
Kindled by a match that sings,
A cantor with his canticle,
Here to give the moment wings.

Hi Nicholas,
This poem makes me feel all festival when I read it. You couldn't have chosen a better time to post this one. I'm sure that you feel the same way too!
