Mom, your hands have shaped and molded me
In them, you hold the story of my life
No other hands on this earth can hold this for me
No others will
For this, I thank you
For this, I love you
Mom,
a lifetime of memories
are in your hands
Of soft velvety newborn skin
And holding books
for little eyes to see
Of making a thousand
favorite sandwiches
And wrapping presents
to celebrate special days
