Holding Hands 2004

The Hands that hold,
Hands which know,

There are Hands which reach out,
Many more will seek out,

Artistic beautiful Hands which paint,
Writers Hands I adore their language which they make,

Some Hands can sculpt the other Hand,
Respect also to musicians and dancers Hands which aid,

Hands of the baby which are new and sometimes emulate,
The aging Hands have lived to show,

Everyones Hands are unique,
Some Hands will sign the silence of speech,

Some Hands I dread could destroy,
I love the many more Hands that meet to greet,

Either the right or left Hand can help the needy,
Even the ones which are not adorned are pleasing,

Only the Hands that hold,
Are the Hands which will know.
