Chayei Sarah

Chayei Sarah


Had this field been ripe with grass

Of this, we’re never told

Or nourished flocks of bleating sheep

Shepherd beckoning to the fold


What worth this cave that dwells within

What secrets there unfold

Had some wanderer once sought shelter there

One stormy night, when the year was old


Approaching now with seasoned steps,

With foot like leather soled,

An aged man puts forth his hand, 

A deed of sale, behold


With humble reverence he lifted her

Her radiance shone, like gold

As he rested she in the cavern there

In the grotto, by the fold
