Parsha Mattot/Massei

       Numbers  30:2-36-13


They stop forty-two times
in the wilderness
How many times did they listen
How many times did they rest
in the promise, how many times
did they bicker and argue
How many times did they
want to return to the familiar
I,too, journey
with stops along the way
Paths meander,
 burrs attach to my socks
brambles scratch my arms
the sun warms my bones,
the ocean sings
and grace appears unannounced
