About the creation

Some 600 hundred years ago there lived in Rome the poet Avraham Ben-Yoav the Modest. I liked his poem "I Shall Come Today" and felt that across the centuries, the poem is my close friend today. Thus, the tile of my work serves also as a dedication to one of the many Hebrew poets, who do not live in our consciousnss now. Their verses and discourses would afford us great pleasure were they among us at present day and their legacy is an important part of our cultural heritage, Let us beware of the affliction of forgetfulness.
