Bar's Jewish Christmas Poem!!!

Poem:

The Fog

That winter evening was especially dark and foggy in the streets.  Pale yellowy lit windows and balconies hinted of their rooms decorated for the Christmas Eve celebration.
 
People were dressed for winter in dark colored clothes.  They were swarming around, coming in and out of shops, and bars.  While looking at gifts, their faces were shining bright and with smiles.  Beautiful gifts in store window displays that were beaming with intense illumination.
 
The streets were teeming with cars and buses looking frantically at each other with their brilliant eyes, as if displayed on plushy velvet linen that was embroidered with diamonds.....  Visions exposed in the museum of memories.

Something made me turn around, I felt inside so much happiness, and I looked back into the dense fog at the end of the street.  I saw a wooden streetcar from a far in the smog.  It started emerging with its row of windows showing a bustling inside.  It appeared as it were pictures of a brief story, accompanied by the rattling and clattering on the silver rails.  Showing an encircled Maguen David on its frontal roof and a white sign on its side with three black words written on it:  "Nur für Juden" ...then it went past and started moving away disappearing down the street in the thick fog.
 
Behind me a fond melody was heard..."White Christmas".  The song White Christmas was playing and Israel Isidore Belin was looking at me from 1941, he was very elegantly dressed in a dark suit... my lovely Jewish Carol!

"White Christmas" is an Irving Berlin song.

Lyrics:
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
Just like the ones we used to know
Where the treetops glisten and kiddies listen
To hear sleigh bells in the snow
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white
Where the treetops glisten and children listen
To hear those sleigh bells in the snow
I'm dreamin' of a white Christmas
