Holocaust Poem: Day After Day by Roni Kadish
Day After Day by Roni Kadish Moshav Neve Yarak
Dedicated to my daughter-in-law's mother, a survivor of Auschwitz and slave laborer. When winds gale, Freeze eyes shut, I think of her Driven on icy feet in a weaving line Over bodies buried in mud. I shudder at her memories- Stories of furnaces, Beatings, Tears that dried before they fell. See scattered bones, Her hands outstretched for crusts of bread. I'm with her When hearts stop beating, And flames devour souls. My mother's cries follow me day after day.

Poetry Submission: Life is a Riddle by Nosson Kohn
Life is a Riddle by Nosson Kohn Life is a Riddle, who can figure it out? better know the secret, don't be in doubt That which seems sweet turns out to be bitter, you only find out in the end once its too late That which is feared most of all- death is its name turns out to be -just life re-birthing- in a higher plane Letting go of what you want is the only way to get it, to improve your performance, stop thinking about it. To make the most of time, loose track of it. To avoid worrying about the future, focus on the present moment The way to the pleasant life is through hard work, those who destroy their desires experience endless pleasure.
