OUR HANDS
These are a gardener's hands, planting spring bulbs in the municipal parks.
My hands play acoustic guitar. I am music's diligent apprentice.
I have the praying hands of clergy – vicar, minister, imam, rabbi, priest.
Mine are the hands that feed, a chef', so you will sit and eat; welcome.
Or where there is hurt, these hands heal – nurse, doctor, surgeon – make whole.
My hands wear the gloves of science. I think research is a kind of love.
I offer the hands that fight fire as I run to the burning tower.
