Soft HandsA Poem by Free Spirited
His family was poor,
He left school. To work Frail form, tested daily Skin calloused Muscle built He worked till it pained And still forced himself harder Numbing the pain His hands grew dead He could not feel the sense of touch Not his wife’s kind hands Or his daughter's soft hair Working all the while, He wondered, exactly what, That smooth skin would feel like Working harder still © 2016 Free SpiritedReviews
