Our arms are a wonder of creation…
There are many reason why:
They allow us to touch our toes
to scratch our nose
and to pretend that we can fly.
They help us do a jumping jack.
shake hands when we’re interviewed…
They help us reach for things above our heads
and come in handy for grabbing food.
They help us raise our hands in prayer to our God
to show that we believe…
and think about it…
If we didn’t have arms…
what would we do with sleeves?
But I imagine the main reason our arms were created
is so when we open them wide
they can wrap around another person
once they step inside.
For where else do we feel safe, secure
totally free from harm?
Where else do we learn the power of love
If not wrapped in each others’ arms.
