I Christmas Poem for Nancy br br Noel, Noel br We live and we die br Between heaven and hell br Between the earth and the sky br And all shall be well br And all shall be unwell br And once again! all shall once again! br All shall be well br By the ringing and the swinging br of the great beautiful holiday bell br Of Noel! Noel! br br II Salute Valentine br br I'll drink to thee only with my eyes br When two are three and four, br And guzzle reality's rise and cries br And praise the truth beyond surmise br When small shots shout: More! More! More! More! br br III Rabbi to Preach br br Rabbi Robert Raaba will preach br on "An Eye for an Eye" br (an I for an I?) br (Two weeks from this week: "On the Sacred Would") br At Temple Sholem on Lake Shore Drive br - Pavel Slavensky will chant the liturgical responses br And William Leon, having now thirteen years br will thank his parents that he exists br To celebrate his birthday of manhood, his chocolate br Bar Mitzvah, his yum-yum kippered herring, his Russian br Corona.
