"The Scattered Leaves is an analogy for Jewish Holocaust survivors 'who lost their roots and trees' - their families. The main thrust of the poem by my friend, Joseph H. Albeck, is that 'We, the living' should use the Yiddish word 'Khurbn' when praying for the souls of those lost in the Holocaust, rather than the Englishword 'Holocaust' or even the Hebrew word 'Shoah,' because Yiddish was 'their language.' " -Stanley M. Hoffman

Use: Jewish Holocaust-related concerts and services; high school, college, community, professional, temple choruses
