I take your slender fingers into my palm
and with my thumb, I trace circles
on the tender part of your hand.
It’s a rhythmic ritual
meant to soothe
and chase your demons away.
I take your slender fingers into my palm
and with my thumb, I trace circles
on the tender part of your hand.
It’s a rhythmic ritual
meant to soothe
and chase your demons away.
You take the essence of motherhood and crystalize it into a small but powerful action. LOVE this poem!
