Childhood Home
"My
childhood home in the village of Mniszek, near the city of Rachow
(today Annapol), Poland.
I am carrying water up the hill
to our house; my sister Mania waits for me.
My brother, Ruven, is standing
with the wagon.
My father and my sister Chana are
in front of the house, along with my mother, who holds my youngest
sister, Leah."
