"Hands" - A Poem

Updated: Apr 10, 2021

Poem by Joey Zhou



The hands of the earth are mountains,

And the dark green between the mountains;

What about the hands of dark green?


The hand of the blue sky is a white cloud,

And wind and rain between clouds and fog;

What about the hands of wind and rain?


The thundering hand is lightning,

And the intersection of speed and time;

What about the hands of time and space?


The hand of the universe is gravity,

And black holes in the stars;

What about the hands of black holes?



Nothing,

When exhausted,

Can devour everything,

Can also create everything ...!

The human hand is life,

And the soul in life;

What about the hands of the soul?
