My Hands

By Amanda Stine.


My hands are . . .
My Ears, My Eyes, My Voice . . .
My Heart.
They express my desires, my needs
They are the light
that guides me through the darkness

They are free now
No longer bound
to a hearing-sighted world
They are free
They gently guide me

With my hands I sing
Sing loud enough for the deaf to hear
Sing bright enough for the blind to see

They are my freedom
from a dark silent world
They are my window to life
Through them I can truly see and hear

I can experience the sun
against the blue sky
The joy of music and laughter
The softness of a gentle rain
The roughness of a dog's tongue

They are my key to the world
My Ears, My Eyes, My voice…
My Heart

They are me
