The hand can hold the talent to create some beautiful things…
Hey my friends,
I wanted to take a new approach to poetry by writing a recipe within a poem. It was a bit tricky but I think it came out unique yet beautiful. Hope you enjoy 🙂
The Beauty of a Hand
These hands
These overused yet simple hands
Sometimes manicured to perfection
But most of the time simple and ordinary
No polish on the fingers
Nails tend to get long
Your simple yet beautiful hands
They tend to create a beautiful thing
A beautiful thing you say…
Yes a beautiful thing..
It can start with the opening of a simple cookie mix…
That leads to the mixing and intertwining of something simple yet beautiful…
The marriage of an egg, stick of butter and of course lots of sweet chocolate chips
Creating a dough so rich yet a bit grainy to the tip
The beauty of a simple dough
The use of this hand can shape a simple yet perfect heart
Perfect like a heart shape pan
Butter it up with sweet nothings
Tell me secrets that you have never shared
Press them down towards my soul like dough to a pan
Let it sink in into every corner like my heart
Show my heart the true joy of knowing you
Light a fire like you would and oven
Engulf me in your heat 350 degrees
Let me settle in your warmth
Love me not only for 10 to 15 minutes
But love me for a lifetime
Perfect shaped heart ❤
Let this beauty cool till cold to the touch
Awing at the perfect form
Love comes in all types of forms
It can be showered in words, actions, even a simple gesture
But for these hands they shower love in pink icing
The sweetness so decadent it is covered and written on this beautiful heart
Use these hands…
To show me how you love me
To show me how you care
Actions clearly speak louder than words…
Your hands
Your simple yet beautiful hands…
They have created
They have used
These hands have shown kindness
These hands have shown strength
My beautiful hands tell a story
Sometimes pure
Sometimes dark
But with a simple idea
They create not only beauty
They create…
Love
Love can be shown in any form
