first blossoms
seeing them extends my life
seventy-five more years

– Matsuo Bashō

Im Nachtübergang
malt der Tag die Farben leer
sinnesübervoll

Kommt gut durch die Nacht

Ist der Senf sehr scharf,
so dass Dir das Auge tränt,
singe drei Lieder!

Korvar sig strumpbyxor?
sjäkvklar systerfråga

Skiter björnen i skogen?

Månen är gul som katten
Jag skakar under täcket

Katten är trött som som natten

Daffodils keep watch,
Violets, dandelions
join in April's joy.

Spring leaves of מָרוֹר
Sprout from bitter roots, still bearing.
Fifteen medics killed.

#DailyHaikuPrompt - "mustard" #haiku

"maror" - מָרוֹר - (pronounced "ma-ROAR"). Meaning "bitter herbs" (like mustard leaves, though often substituted with horseradish) are a symbolic element of Passover Seder, which we'll join this weekend along with millions of Jews around the world. Maror represents the bitterness of enslavement.

Passover is about freedom and enslavement - the story of our Exodus from Pharoah's Egypt.

At our Passover Seder we'll talk about freedom then and now. Holocaust stories - stories of our families' escapes, and of those who did not escape - are woven together with stories of the czar's pogroms, Pharaoh's enslavement of the Jews, and the exodus: ten plagues; ten commandments; an idolatrous betrayal; a bonus copy of the ten commandments; what-have-you.

It will be no mean feat to talk about hostages still held in Gaza at our tables this Passover; nor the atrocities of Trump and Miller and Musk - sending our people to some Salvadoran prison hell. But we Jews must not avoid the conversation that breaks our hearts: Israel's targeted killings of civilians; torture and murder of prisoner's of war; destruction of cities, mosques, hospitals, homes; AI targeted bombings of blameless households; a moment now where supplies are blocked, and tens of thousands are trapped and starving, terrorized by strikes that might hit anyone, anywhere.

We need to talk about what power we have and how to use it.

Early morning. Sunrise
no better in Denmark than
in bonnie Scotland.

An einem blühenden Baum
Vorbeigehen und
Glücklich

a cat on the floor,
reaching out in the darkness
for a ray of light

Entflammter Himmel
tanzende Lichter der Nacht
glitzern in Sternen
