Beatrice Reed BarkerDecember 18, 1914 - November 1, 2004

These HandsI’m proud of them - these hands of mine;

So many things they’ve done.

They’ve planted flowers, and pulled the weeds,

And worked out in the sun.

They’ve kneaded bread and cooked the meals

More times than I can say.

They’ve washed a ton of clothes, I guess,

And put them all away.

They’ve soothed a small child’s fevered brow

And rubbed an aching head.

And when the evening shadows fell,

They put the brood to bed.

They’ve borne the bite of winter’s cold

And felt the warmth of spring.

And on one finger long ago

Was put a wedding ring.

And when my journey here is o’er,

I still shall thankful be

That these old worn-worn hands of mine

Have done so much for me.
