Best Poems Written by Raven Smith

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
