Contents:
I will be really happy when I am home
Two cannot take three places : what is missing is missing
Don't you feel that a new generation is born?
What sights her eyes have seen
They must attack immediately
The wait
Aaron aaronsohn's journey
One of your men came across the desert
What about Avshalom?
Black nights
What I have done, I have done purely for my people and my country
To Sarah
We are watched by a thousand eyes
Everywhere I turn I feel his absence
The situation is getting worse
She is worth a hundred men
The boys will turn into green crowned date palms.
