Thy Tiny Fingers

by David Lester Young — Read all 1,103 poems by David Lester Young

From the first gasp grasp, as babes, our fingers grow to record our written words for posterity, for those next set of little fingers to follow suit.

Thy Tiny Fingers

 

Thee fingers, hold thy finger,

Upon love’s livelong journey.

Thee wails amid an umbilical chord,

Separates mother’s womb ‘n born child.

 

That sets a baby adrift time traversals,

Where in each stage, bears Poet Tree

Bud blossoms, sprouting forth futures,

Where adolescents, do branch, onto adults.

 

The pollination of humanity, must bare fruit.

Where tiny fingers, grasp dye, first breath gasp.

Where Civilization Wills, record unique voyages

Therein each new leaf, knowledge Will expand.

 

Little fingers, do grasp, thee quill, to feather living,

In lucid expressions, writing universal understanding.

Surroundings that encompass master Literature feats.

Alight HeArtBeats, bonding compassionate, novel love.  

 

Oh, babe of rhyme, dew kiss this world, with thee words.

Oh, child of God, write thy vibrant wings, amidst spry miracles.

Wherein each of US, We furrow little fingers, To Be fully grown.

To envelope vivacious vocabulary, a lust contagious germination.

 

Alas, dye poet’s fingers have wrinkled skeleton peace pieces.

Where live stains, age mark lifelines, amongst senior’s ring bark.

Oh God, pry little fingers, who must write accomplished acclamation,

Seniority that rips alive, before die final RIP death, weathers fingers gone.

Ronald there are physical and mind wandering mental fingers amidst the breath in fingered thoughts that shine within us, by many means possible, poets transpire poetry to linger amongst memories

An interesting take on the life of fingers. What struck me was the relationship you made between the use of fingers and words. It is very personal for me, because I lost the use of my fingers at 20 years of age. But I did not lose my use of words. In fact, with a special metal cyborg device attached to my right hand, I was able to write again and my use of words multiplied immensely.

Losing once again, even my ability to write with the hand splint in 1998, I sought the use of voice dictation on the computer which is what I am writing this with, without the use of fingers at all.

... And those little fingers are guided by God to write what needs to be written. Little fingers are always busy writing, even when wrinkled with wisdom and seniority. Good write, David!

God leaves beautiful love stains on a child's heart, and when he or she grows up, they turn into imprints of love.
Well done David . Thanks for sharing
