Terumah

Terumah


The cheruvim slowly emerge,

from hammered gold, the dust of the earth,

the forged crust of the Aron itself.


They gaze softly, face to face,

through burnished eyes,

golden-feathered wings outspread,

a chuppah, gleaming, untarnished.


As if to say,

though adorned in Egypt’s trinkets,

love is the essential treasure,

around which to build,

a mishkan.
