Testimony Poem

                    By: Yitskhok Rudashevski

It was a cold day today ...People huddled up with cold...
It is dark and forbidding
at the dark, sad ghetto vendors..
It is livelier at the street corners...
Around the little lamp poor ghetto vendors.
Most children, cling to the light ,
It is truly a cold day Today...

From the book Salvaged Pages: a a book full with diaries of many of the survivors of the Holocaust.
