Poems and Thoughts    by Frank Maurer

Exchange between two Philosophies. F.     May I read you a Shabbat poem or is that considered work? A.     I avoid calls during Shabbat. Too tired now, will call later. F.     Hello. Yes, I know about calls on Shabbat, but I was 'urged' To read you a 'Shabbat thought' written on that day, Concerned with our lethargy to aid the Earth and thus us. I seldom break the 'rules', but this was an act of civil disobedience With a good motive. Remember, even Palistrina 'illegally' Slipped in dissonance now and then, despite the church! (Lower case 'c' on purpose.) Rest well, dear friend. F. Frank Maurer 9 and 11 June 2023. .
