Holes in Hands

"Why, Mommy? Why?"
Bewildered look following
"Why are there holes in His hands?"
I looked in his face
Puckered brows
His passion building
And I felt so proud
"Why do you think?"

"The holes are there, Mommy, so
His spirit can fly free.  So He can
find us."

I don't know about you
But that answer
Settled in my soul
Like a thick, warm comforter
The kind only your
Grandmother could make

4 year old philosopher
Asking the questions
Tired adults
Forget to ask
