My fascination with his hands (18 lines, 82 words)
Strong and capable, skilled and worn,
holding fast to your crumbling world.

Vulnerable and weary, tender and caring.
I feel I want to console them.

Your huge hands are an introduction
to the size of your heart, the warmth of your soul.

They can construct shelter from the surroundings,
or awaken flesh to passion.

I'd like to reach out and touch my fascination
with kindness, respect, and competence.

Praying that someday,
you'll allow me the pleasure
of touching those hands, my desire.
