How Can I Forget?…

How can I ever forget that touch of the hands,
Holding me safe when I was born?
How can I ever forget those hands,
Helped me take my first step?
And pull me up from having a fall?
How can I forget those loving hands,
Wiping my tears when it hurt me?
How can I forget those soft hands,
On my forehead when running high fever?
How can I forget those strong hands,
Guiding me climb up every step of success?
How can I even forget those rough hands,
On my cheeks to mould me into a fine man?
How can I forget I grew up now into a young man,
And those wrinkled hands are up praying for my happiness?…
