Sukkot: The Heart of the Sukkah
let the walls of my heart be easily moved as the walls of the Sukkah that sway in the wind
let the roof of my heart be porous to tears as the roof of the Sukkah that lets in the rain
let the space in my heart be open to guests as to Ushpizin who pass through each night
let the beat of my heart be a vital reminder that life here is transient – a temporary dwelling
let the walls, left unsealed, and the roof, with its lattice, frame the cracks that will let in the light
