Hands

How often do we forget hands?

The hands that held us soft and kind

We were only infants at this time

They dressed and cleaned us with love so dear

Can you feel how sacred they are here?

As we grew those hands helped

Us to know just what we felt

They showed us love and taught us strength

Firm and gentle in the same place

Even though when we were bad

They may have hurt us made us sad

But in the end we always knew

We could find safety that was true

So close your eyes and just remember

Love wrapped around you during a cold December.
