Has God Promised Me/I Will Live Forever? (Written In Beloved Memory Of My Bubbe Peshie Bat- Yaakov Zeibert On Her Fiftieth Yahrtzeit



Has God promised me
I will live forever?
And that those I love
Will live forever?

He has promised
That the Jewish people
Will not die-

But so much has died
Over such a long time
And often in catastrophic ways

I pray that Humanity will not die
I pray that the Jewish people will not die
I hope I pray for many people I know
Not to disappear forever

I pray

I pray
