Evil can't be ignored,

Justice must be restored.

There is nothing greater,

Than someone who does chesed for the Creator!

A snake bit Rebbi Chanina, but he didn't feel it,

If love is fierce, you can't conceal it.

Dovid HaMelech's love for Hashem was so strong,

His fingers played the harp, while his lips moved in song!

Giving praise for something you love feels nice,

One way to show commitment is through sacrifice.

Even the difficulties that can't be understood,

Know that everything is ultimately for the good!

The Ramchal tells us how far our honor for Shabbos goes,

Rav Anan wore black on Fridays to contrast with his Shabbos clothes.

The wicked Achav merited to be king for so long,

Because the Holy Torah, he refused to pass along.

We should try to go above and beyond our minimum duty,

& infuse the mitzvos with beauty!

To show how far kavod goes,

Eisav only served Yitzchak in royal clothes!

The Ramchal has many big ideas,

Like how to be a Chasid in עֲשִׂיָה

To daven with true devotion,

Yirah has to develop first in the emotions!

In the same way we judge others, we will be judged,

So don't hate or hold a grudge.

Give tzadaka and freely lend,

It is with chesed that the Torah begins and ends!

The chuchamim discuss why they lived a long life,

Rebbi Zeira was careful with his family to avoid strife.

A chasid goes above and beyond,

He weighs his options before he responds!
