For My Mom


The Hand I Hold

That hand that cradled me when I was small
The hand that reaches out each time I fall
The hand on my forehead when fevering
The hand on my shoulder encouraging

The hand that cheered in my victories
The hand that caught me in all defeats
The hand on my cheek that wiped a tear
The hand in my heart that calmed my fears

This is the hand that guided me
Throughout my lifelong journey
This is the hand I will not let go
“I’ll hold your hand mom, ‘til old you grow”
