Your Feet —

I hold your feet in the palm of my hand.
I will guide their first steps,
Catch them if they trip,
Turn them in the way of righteousness,
Stop them in their tracks if they should stray.

I hold your feet in the palm of my hand.
I lift you to the sky
And celebrate the gift you are to me
And send you into the world to walk, run
And be.

—Joan Moon, CNM, MSN
