Introducing Torah study through Haiku

Rebecca Tullman has a brilliant post up at ReformJudaism.org about Torah study with Haiku. That piece leads to other posts that taker readers deeper still. She begins with the following:

Parashat B'reishit Haiku

in the beginning
Oneness breathed us into life
we are unity

Parashat Noach Haiku

at Babel we learn
build up your community
not silly towers

Parashat Lech-Lecha Haiku

covenant begins
binding us to the Divine
move towards holiness

Parashat Vayeira Haiku

all we need is here
if we assist each other
to open our eyes

Please don't pass on this opportunity to learn in a new way. Rabbi Emily Langowitz contributed to the basics of Torah study with a very useful and concise tour of the Torah as well.
