Mama's Hands

My mother has long And delicate fingers Made for caressing As she strokes my hair So sweetly in the night. Her lovely hands Are soft and fragile Not as young as in my youth Delightful and tender Soothing my weary heart. Written on 12/1/2014

Thanks, Christy. I cherish the times my mother and even more so as she is in her 80's now.
