Hands

Contributed by dvtpdw on Friday, 8th November 2013 @ 01:09:14 PM in AEST
Topic: Lifepoems



Tiny fist nestles within a soft hand
Swaddled in arms that won't let go
Moment treasured; future yet planned
Gently sleeping in an innocent's glow

Fingers entwined, skipping down the walk
Smiles of the purest beauty ever known
Silly stories told as tiny lips begin to talk
A hug barely reaching as love's shown

Hug, handshakes to the ones who guided
Kiss on the cheek; quick wave driving away
Time passes as the calls become one sided
Hurried listening to the stories of yesterday

Tiny hands wrap around toughened skin
Rocked gently to sleep as others before
Memories passed on in songs they sing
Silent sadness gazing at the closed door

Fingers entwined with ones now bent
Tissue paper skin, so tender to the touch
Memories flood, aware of what it meant
Being held safely, loving in their clutch

Moment arrives with its final farewell
Hands fold in prayer as coldness grows
Lips move in the memories they must tell
Of hands entwined as love forever flows

A fine poem written using perfect rhyme
The author has taken pains to narrate
In a way that requires great efforts
A wise way of writing poems to express'

I hope I understood this correctly. Cycle of life?

I know the imagery was excellent. I'm just a bit daft at times. o.O

Love your poetry!

Thank you.

Tim
