The Poems Are Far Away/The Thoughts Far Away Also
The poems are far away
The thoughts far away also
The heat is too great
And the discomfort difficult
Waiting is not easy
Even if it is only for a few hours-
Soon the birthday guests will assemble
They will sing to me and say kind things about me
I will try in my way to thank and bless them-
It has been a long road
Those who put me on it
Are no longer here-
Now there are for me only the younger generations
Thank G-d for them-
May G-d protect them and enable them to flourish in the years to come
And may I go on for a while also.
