so wrinkled, so old.
over 50 years
they have touched,
held, moved, expressed.
Beautiful, worn,
calloused, soft, strong.
Old yet young,
memories through
sensation, scars.
Strength.

...If your hands were to have a voice, the stories they could tell would be unreal-intriguing-amazing-surreal...Your whole life is etched in your hands via lines, scars, wrinkles, veins and rings...

Loved your write Shasta...flowerforyou

ah those phlanges we took for granted all those years, the things they've held, the varying textures they've felt, caressed. If hands could talk, wait they can...sign language.....mine speak volumes, but every line begins with arth and ends with ritis.....

I enjoyed this immensely, it was rather unique...was puzzled why you used beautiful, worn, rather than beautifully worn.....works either way I guess....very nice
