Shelach Lecha

Shelach Lecha


The Bnei Yisrael were taken out

Of bondage in the land of Mitzrayim,

And they saw all the wonders and miracles performed,

Including the splitting of the Mayim.


But memory is a funny thing,

And we don’t always remember,

The miracles we saw in January

By the time we get to December.


We surely need something real to see,

Since memory won’t always bear witness,

So the Ribbono shel Olam, in His great compassion,
Gives us the mitzvah of Tzitzis.


And I can’t help but wonder what might have been

If we had approached our Land,

Wearing our Tzitzis of blue and white,

Knowing God had it all in hand?
