The Surgeons Hand
To complete the commands of the mind
And the emotions of the heart
To reach for the surgical drapes
To clinch the towel clips shut
To palpate the undesirable mass
To draw the incision site and
To silently speak to the surgical team
To dissect
To touch
To remove
To create and
To repair
To bandage and
To document
Feel the hands of the family
Express comfort to the friends
And write the love ones
For it is our Hands that act as the
Harmonious
Answer to a
Never Ending
Demand
From the mind and
The emotions of the heart
