Only Once A Year

אחינו בני עדות המזרח (Sefardim)  say יוצרות
only once a year and that is on Shabbos Parshas Zachor. 

These יוצרות are called "מי כמוך". It starts with the Piyut
from R.Yehuda Halevi "אדון חסדיך"

The סדר הדורות writes,
 When R. Yehudah Halevi wrote the Piyut "אדון חסדיך"
he took a break at the Stanza of the letter ר (Reish).

The Ibn Ezra passed by and continued on his own
the Stanza on the letter ר.

R.Y.Halevi was so impressed with the stanza
that he left it in the Piyut and continued on.
He also took him as a son in law as a result of this.

Hence, the two stanzas for the letter  ר .
