Parsha Poem for Balak

בס״ד

Balak

Avraham was instructed “Lech Lecha”,
Was this really a command?
Moshe was advised “Shelach Lecha”,
Was the decision in his hands?

Bilaam was instructed “Kum Lech”,
And he responded with “get up and go”,
Was this an order or an option?
Now, how is one to know?

They say HaShem will aid you,
In the way you want to travel,
But reconsider your direction,
Should your best laid plans unravel.
