Summoned For A Show Poem by Maya Took

Up all you come! Said He,
Long have we been in misery
We need some theater up here!
And a director volunteer!

Look here, look here! Said father than,
“A director there I was,
And can now build you up a show “
And thus the story goes:

He called on some best actors
He called for singers too,
He called for some stage builders
Though one came, and guess who?

Yes, his name Sir Schwarts
And engineer he is,
Works with Sir Zaliuk now
And became good peers.

Than they asked some actors,
Here we have but none,
“Let’s make some climb-
From earth- to heaven now.”

They thought together loudly
Whom they wand to pick
They decided than
Of Sefi and Arik! *

“Wow this is splendid!
Said to them the Lord,
And now we need a singer!
Look now and behold!

I have a good suggestion,
Also said the lord,
There is a pretty Lady
A Blessing she will hold”

“Who is she asked the Sirs,
Coming here so young,
Miss Yaar said the Lord
A singer with special charm”

And thus the set is ready
Almost and nearly done,
The audience will be
The family of Sharaban

So now here on earth
We know where people go
They have been called my major force
To build a splendid show.

To us they seem as dead
But truly we don’t know
They came up specially to please the Lord
To put for him a show
