Children Poem

A parent looks at his child's hand's and wonders what they will accomplish in this world.

These Fingers

© Jason S. Miller
what will these little fingers touch?
I wonder about it, oh so much.
will they draw a face,
or fly into space?
maybe catch a fish, or cook your favorite dish.
oh what will these fingers do?
will they learn to fix a car?
or shape clay into a jar?
will they help you climb the tallest mountain?
or scoop ice cream at the local soda fountain.
I wonder what these fingers will touch and do,
these little fingers we've given to you.
