The Hands of Kindness


A woman takes 
another woman 
by the hand
gently leading her 
to the bathroom 
to wash 
the tear tracks away  

They walk slowly, 
one matching her pace 
to the other.  

The bond of love 
amidst the chaos 
of broken things 
around and in them 
is strong.  

And in the tender space 
between two clasped hands
broken things do not seem 
quite so broken 
any more
