I saw when your Sun began to shine....on my Moon
5:53 sunrise smiles on Tsefat skies
as twilight croons home to claim her prize
saffron rays marks a mystic light show
kindled sparks ripen into a husky glow
Summon cave winds and dew-cool lush
to sweeten a deep thought purpl-y plush
seraphim, ofanim 'round and thunder
the moment day and night are wrent 'sunder
flows the ancient, the age old lullaby
that sparks the sigh and then the battle cry
skies, hazy spazy crazy bright blues
blends with clouds of creamy puff hues
5:53 sunrise smiles on Tsefat skies
as twilight croons home to claim her prize
I saw when your sun began to shine
on my moon...
G-d bless!

Azamra....Africa!!!
Bikelordz : Stunts and Styles from Accra, Ghana from Bikelordz on Vimeo.
Their moves are amazing.
Be careful though.
Notice how the interviewer seems to keep asking the guys if they work.
Down that dog!
Why is he trying to dis their good?
That's the EXACT opposite of what Azamra/finding the good points is based on.
These kids have talent. In the last clip, the Ghanian replied, "it's my talent, so I don't play with it. I'm working on it."
You keep shining, Ghana!
Shine, baby!!
G-d bless!

Azamra...Africa!!!
Azamra in Hebrew means "I will sing." I am making a series of articles called Azamra...Africa! specifically noting the beauty of Africa: it's people, it's culture, it's geography, it's history.
In mainstream media, there is all this talk of how terrible it is on the African continent. Granted, every place has its challenges, but the way Africa is portrayed, one could easily think that there is only
a vastness of life-less desert and poverty.
We know that ain't true.
In Judaism, Rabbi Nachman emphasized finding the good points within ourselves and others. Africa is bursting with goodness and richness, and we are gonna celebrate that right here.
Africa is the oldest civilization. Ours is undeniably intertwined with hers- whether we like it or not. The good points in Africa are ultimately the good points within us.
Today I'm checking out the Tingatinga Art.
This art form was first developed in the southern area of Tanzania by the Makua tribe. Whether on walls, leather, wood or rocks, artists would use these mediums to express their views and opinions.
Edward Said Tingatinga really developed this art form and originated amazing and beautiful paintings.
Azamra...Africa!
G-d bless!!
