Counting the Omer with an ancient litany entirely dedicated to the natural world. Perek Shira takes quotes from sacred texts and puts them in the mouths of all of Creation. Sun, Clouds, Grass, Rooster, Frog, . . . each has a voice, an homage, a lesson.

Counting Two
Without a witness The story forgotten A tombstone with a name Walk through the yard
When you take the children Waiting for rain A late summer shower The story buried there
