The Trans Haggadah Companion

By Bev Yockelson

On this night
I remember Nachshon
who was not Moses who
walked into the Red Sea
and called for God
to meet him there
On this night
I am only a body and you
are only a body
On this night
nothing is hidden
only the afikomen
On this night
God was here and I
I knew it
