Hand to Hand
Hand
in Hand, a noble couple,
Kneel
at Temple’s holy altar,
Covenanting
with God and one another,
Forever
joined and sealed together.
Soon
their child, perfectly trusting, is
Swung
high, both their hands tightly grasping,
Laughter,
smiles and thrills escape,
As memories for eternity they
make.
Precious
others join their circled trio,
Looping,
turning, closely linked, they go,
Occasionally
one barely hanging on,
They
lift and pull each other along.
Determined
and connected to the end,
Until
their circle, circles back again,
And
together in eternity they finally land,
Holding
God’s hand, to hand, to hand...

This is beautiful, Mom. I also like the title of your blog very much. It is aesthetic and conveys an interesting idea.
