There are times that I cannot understand <br />The things that You want and the things You’ve planned. <br />You do some things in a mysterious way <br />And my eyes behold of these everyday. <br />That is why I’ll just kiss Your nail-pierced hands. <br /> <br />You do things quickly but sometimes You wait. <br />Never You’ve been early… never been late. <br />Sometimes, I’m left puzzled by Your timing <br />And the indescribable things you bring. <br />That is why I’ll just kiss Your nail-pierced hands. <br /> <br />Sometimes I let my self-centeredness rule; <br />My open-mindedness sometimes can fool <br />Because I have questions I can’t explain. <br />The utmost knowledge I cannot attain. <br />That is why I’ll just kiss Your nail-pierced hands. <br /> <br />Your nail-pierced hands can speak wisdom to me <br />Anything that you say I will agree. <br />Thanks for making me wiser everyday <br />You don’t desire for me to go astray. <br />And yes, I will just kiss Your nail-pierced hands.<br /><br />Obed dela Cruz<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/nail-pierced-hands-2/
