One Hand

One hand

One hand can lift the spirits of another
Held together when spirits are low
One hand does not need to speak
For it has the power to communicate silently.
The comfort of the transpiring care is extended
Fulfilling ones needs to regain feeling of wellness
Reaching out to the other hand becomes a gift
Such a gift cannot be held, only felt.
