Heshvan is the quiet month:
No holidays
No repentence
No redemption
No dancing,
Phew!
Heshvan is the Shabbat of months.
Heshvan is when we rest
From deep thoughts
And history
And joy,
Enough already!
Heshvan is the Shmita of months.
Heshvan is when we lie fallow
And let the worms of reflection make compost
While we sip Pina Coladas
On the metaphorical beach.
L’chaim!
Thank you, Heshvan.
Have a nice month, everybody.
