little hands
little handslittle hands
relentless to discover
all -- about
whichever they touch
small just learning
hands
an eye at tip of
each one
seeing with feel
curiosity eager!
-- watchful -- eagerly
for
what comes next
with grief and joy
they shall be acquainted
holding the pin
upon which angels dance
life's calluses/lacerations
and burns
soothed with salves
from apothecaries dusty shelves
they shall know
life
in a
touch.
