One Hand In Another
Small hand.
Bigger hand. The hand of the brother.
Bigger again. The hand of the mother.
Bigger, bigger. The hand of the grandfather.
The smallest hand fits inside the biggest hand. Inside the next. Inside the next.
A whole family of hands.
When we walk on the path: the smallest hand is in the bigger hand.
When we wave to the dog: all the hands wave.
When the wind is loud: the hands hold tight.
That is what hands do.
