La Manos

How delicate and unique hands appear From intricate anatomy internally To smooth textures and painted cuticles From stained and inked pores on the surface To the precious gift they enable us to craft Worked and Fatigue But never retiring From the faded... Note writing Feeling- The sense of touch From the life lines that keep on living Two unique prints our phalanges hold Oh and yes I say two Two, I say two for the 2 beautiful limbs attached to our Caramel, Honey, Mocha, Tan, Peach, Badge coated wrists Showing ere signs of vein and bone Precious limbs like hands shouldn't be taken for granted As delicate as unique snow crystals Just as important as life itself What beautiful limbs they are -Hands
