[HANASHIR:13958] Re: Looking for Yom HaShoah song idea



You might want to look at "Birdsong" by Raymond Smolover (Covenant 
Publications).  It was commissioned by the UAHC in honor of it's Centennial 
in 1973 and is a musical setting of a poem from the Terizin Concentraion 
Camp. If you'd like to contact me privately, I'd be glad to sing it for you 
over the phone.  Just to give you part of it, the words in the last verse 
are:

Open up your heart to beauty;
And go to the woods someday
And weave a wreath of memory there,
And if the tears obscure your way
You will know how good it is to be alive.

Good luck,
Fran
