ECHOES

Masquerade 

We thought that we knew everything 

Last year when Purim came 

But these last long months have proved us wrong  

And nothing’s quite the same

Bet you didn’t think about it 

Bet you never guessed 

That you’d be donning masks each day 

As part of getting dressed  

But Purim’s back, and listen closely:   

The die may have been cast

But now, like then, the tide can turn

As miracles unmask.
