God's Hands

God's Hands By Robert Herrick (1591-1674) God's hands are round and smooth, that gifts may fall freely from them, and hold none back at all. the previous inspired me to write, another similar poem. God's hands are scarred, strong, gentle, yet big enough to hold the universe in one and create, guide, manage and pour all that is good into each individual life in the universe from the other hand.
