Redeem Us
by Chavi Leeds
The world is dark
The sirens blare
Calling out to each individual
On a global level
Stay home
Hashem says
Stay home
Geulah is coming
And I’m preparing the world
I’m doing this All for you!
We are getting married!
And the hall is being readied
The flowers are starting to bloom
To be held in our beautiful bouquet
It’s Our Wedding!
Us and You, Hashem
It’s so near
The streets are bare
Making space for our million long train
Arms locked
With Malach Rafael and Malach Michoel
Walking us towards our Chuppah
My earphones
Are inside
Glued to my eardrums
By choice
I hearsay
I’m afraid to take them out
For fear
Is fearful Itself
For listening to the music that has paraded the streets
Has brought to much to Bare
Its the sound of the sirens
Its Jews helping Jews
And yet
Thinking of individuals
On a global level
My heart is bleeding
I feel
Malach Rafael is busy for now
Chasing after Fear Itself
I hope I can make his job easier
And rid this fear
Inside of me
Call me bridezilla if you will
They say a wedding is an auspicious time
A time of great distress
Possibly
Hashem,
Mother is With me
And giving me support
The women are leading the way
For the million long train
The children haven’t wavered from innocence
From the truth
They’ve known this whole time
There will be one Long Front Line
Walking to You
Waiting to Greet Moshiach
Billions are affected
And thousands are infected
The army up there is getting bigger and stronger
Our advocates
Leaders of generations
Crying out together with us
It’s enough
Stop the draft!
The army down here
Needs some moral support
We are packing gear
And taking on
Soul power
Lighting the world
With Care
And Aware
Of You
My G-d
There is none BUT YOU
And I’m afraid to take my earphones out
The sirens blare
The World scream G-d
The World screams G-d forbid
The World is YELLING Your Name!
Can’t You Hear?
Excuse my Chassidishe Chutzpah
I Dare
But Please Turn Around
We Are Calling Your Name
And I Know with Complete Faith
That it is You
Asking us
The question in the first place
It’s All You
Its always been You
China?!
Sorry Excuse for a cover story
We Know the Truth
Hashem we are waiting!
For Moshiach to Reveal Himself
Please do the Honors
And We have the red Material
It’s being rolled out as we speak
I’m working on my Bitachon
And so I don’t need to learn a lesson
From you
Malach of Din
As you are an agent of Hashem
And Hashem
I speak directly to You
I Believe
In the Redemption
With Complete Faith
So Please
Check my Mezuzahs
They are strong
With Faith and Trust
In You
And pass over my door
There is no place for you here,
You are not welcome here
The glue has shattered
And my ears are free
listening to its music As we walk to the Chuppah
Accompanied by myriads of Jews
If you listen closely
You Can hear the soft whispers
Of the Shofar
Practicing
Over and Over
The Redemption is Near
And my Tambourine is waiting
Shaking increasingly
Moving to the rhythm
Of my Soul
As it Calls Your Name
We are expecting Miracles…
Wow, from the heart enter the heart

Do you have a book of poems? I need more! You’re so talented
This is incredible!
Yashar koach! What a well-written and heartfelt positive spin we all need to think about and speak about openly and honestly.
At a time when darkness is on the horizon
And our leaders don’t know to whom to turn.
When we find ourselves with questions no one can answer and the light seems surely to have faded.
Confusion and fear threaten to drive us apart, to plunder our sense of well-being,
Keep up the good work.. yes!! Yes!!! We are dreamily dancing toward the chuppah..
Keep inspiring us to focus on the Ultimate Good!
Love, Mrs. Saxon
