Hands Open
I reached for cotton floating through the air;grasp after grasp it evaded my clutch,floating effortlessly between my fingers. Then I reached out with an open handand the cotton propped against my palm;I slowly guided it toward meuntil it dropped into my lap. Working together we found a state of harmony.
