Letters To:

Hi Jaime:

 

At the end of the most exciting weekend of your life so far I wanted to tell you how proud we are of you. Your Torah reading (and Haftara) gave us goose bumps and brought tears of joy to our eyes. You did it so well that it was simply spiritually uplifting. Then last night you displayed your fun side and reminded us that life should not be taken so seriously all the time. Yours was a killer party. The energy was awesome and your cousins, uncles and friends as well as all of us had a crazy time to remember.

 

So, 

Look around you and observe

See the goodness and preserve

With your spirit heart and soul

We wish and pray that be your call.

 

... and speaking of poems look at the special place we reserved for you on the Zohar Web.

Zohar Blessing

ברכה לזהר

הרוח היא נושבת עצים הם בשלכת

הסתו הגיע ועמו את מתבגרת

עשור שנים עברו מאז כתבתי לך השיר

והנה את בת מצוה ועתידך עשיר

יפה ואצילה לקראתו הנך צועדת

בחיוך מקרין בשובבות עינים מענינת

ואנו שזכינו לראותך פורחת לתפארת

מאחלים לך ברכת זהר נהדרת

יברכך אלוהים וישמרך

וימלא את לבך באהבה ובשמחה

באושר ובתבונה

כי בת ישראל הנך היום ולנו הגאוה

 

A Blessing for Zohar

The wind is blowing the leaves are falling

Autumn has arrived, and you are growing

A decade passed since I wrote you a poem

Now you are a Bat Mitzvah with future bright

Beautiful and regal toward it do you march

With a bright smile and mischievous gaze

We the fortunate who saw you bloom and blossom

Wish you and bestow upon you the Zohar blessing

“May the Lord bless you and guard you and, may

He fill your heart with Love and Happiness, Joy and Wisdom

from now and forever as of today you are

A daughter of the people Israel and

our pride and joy”

Amen
