Chayei Sarah

“Well, well, well, three holes in the ground”,

As the old expression goes.

One might think a well is just a hole,

From which fresh water flows.

But Hagar dovened at a well,

And her prayer was answered, we see,

And Yitzchok, too, goes there to pray,

At the well Be’er-Lechai-Roi.

Eliezer’s prayer is answered, too,

At that well in Aram Naharaim,

When Rivkah draws waters of chesed,

From a spring that is full of mayim.

Now, water is the source of life,

For everything that grows,

And mayim rhymes with chayim,

As everybody knows.

So when, perchance, your path is dark,

Doubts clouding your einayim,

Seek vision from the Font of light,

From Whom flows mayim chayim.
