These Hands

Posted on April 1, 2022 by Sue Santiago

There's a pair of older hands
Clacking away on my keyboard

Crinkles and creases, mercilessly dry
Where did their prowess go?

Thicker now, age spots on the horizon
Beyond the power they once yielded

They've realized their true strength
Being lent to another in love, regardless of like

Oh, yes these have seen so much, and age gracefully. Yest with all the wrinkles and rough spots they are still working the miracles meant to be.

Thank you for your writings I enjoy reading.
