בס״ד
Shabbos Chol HaMoed Pesach
Thirteen is not just a number,
It’s א.ח.ד, if these letters are added,
The identical count for HaShem’s rachamim,
To drash Torah - Reb Yishmael expanded.
A boy can finally count as one,
In a minyan of his peers,
Once he attains, in the fullness of time,
The age of thirteen years.
The Rambam lists thirteen ikarim,
Required for our faith,
Add a thirteenth month for a leap year,
To put Pesach in its place.
In the mystical realm of Kabbalah,
Divine compassion, and olam, entwine,
Chesed and gevurah revealed as one,
(It was that way all the time).
