On Jewish holidays I must
draft poetry in my head
For lack of laptop, I dare trust
my memory instead
This Passover, I did not just
hanker for leavened bread
Still, all last night, I long discussed
the Exodus instead...
And now I type, ere neurons rust,
and soon I'm off to bed!

lovely passover thoughts. Keep the oil close at all times… figuratively at least💖

This is great. I laughed. Happy Passover.
That was the desired result, Avery 😁
I’m glad.

That’s how poetry used to be composed of course! I was thinking about this the other day: if you compose a poem in your head, by definition it has to be memorable!

What you won’t do
Do for poetry.
Family get togethers and the atmosphere of the dining table is well worth visiting at this time.
Love the pattern that was woven in words after you closed the discussion before you went to bed
As for me I can’t see those well polished neurons settling down to rust
Well, Abi, I think we all have to use what we’ve got, else it could atrophy!

Yes, this is true, in some areas life slows down but still it is good to settle into the adjusted pace and take it from there
Well, I love this. I have to study up again on Passover and Exodus. I can’t seem to keep all the facts in my old head. But your poem is delightful, with or without religious/cultural/historical knowledge. :))
It’s a pretty classic story… and the punchline is that we are now 🆓

keep those neurons sharp
I try❣️
I don’t think you need to worry about rusting.
You may think it’s funny, Brian, but it’s a real fear of mine… (not literally rusting, but you know what I mean!)

I was driving (long distance) and had a poem come to me. I recited that poem over and over for about 3 hours until I could put it down on paper. A most trying time! I love this set of couplets that are almost a chant poem – charming!
Wow; you couldn’t stop somewhere to write it down? I would have been afraid to turn on the radio!

Happy Holy Days!
Thanks, Danial 😁
