Hands

Are our hands the antenna to our souls? As we sew, cook,paint and touch the earth Sending signals of caring to our soul Healing and calming us down! How do we handle pain? This pain in our minds That harden our souls Eased by the touch of our hands! Our hands and hearts are connected Lovers touching and holding hands Nature blossoming with tender touch We see a whole life lived in old hands And it won’t hurt as much As you learn to embroider The essence of your soul into The creation of your heart into a whole! 21.6.2021

Yes indeed, in this world of vibrations, all senses are nothing if not devices to interpret these vibrations, and touch is primeval, as this lovely poem suggests, congrats for a fine win.
