Image result for wrinkly hands holding young hands

By: Ashlee Zlotnick

Soft but wrinkly,
warm but shaky.
Lack of strength
yet full of love.

You held my hand
as tight as you could.
You’ll never let go you said.
Never, even if you should.

Protective

Yet willing to explore.
Allowing me to venture.
Travel far or near
You’ll be there for me.
