Saudades

A feeling of joy descends slowly
Finding its resting place within me
The images of the past now an inspiration
Listening to the memories
fills me with tendernes
I have survived, I am here, I am alive
Connected always to my past with love and saudade
For those who went before, so
I open my heart like a shrine
Unblemished by bitterness or hate
Filled with love for them
Centuries of tender care could not deny
Born into a perfect harmony
As humane and mature, I now face the future
With the wholeness of spirit that is victorius
We once more can share
The essence and purity of life as
Jews from Sepharad.
