Poem In progress (little fingers)

little fingers
get so frustrated
opening closing buttons
little fingers
get full of sticky stuff
get washed by big fingers
little fingers
takes all of them
to wrap around one of yours
say owwl opening up
milk bottles
little fingers finding little noses
holding big pens
extra large crayons
monstrous puzzle pieces
geography lessons
spelling bees
little splinters
little fingers
want everything
little fingers like to nestle in big hands
little fingers find their way Into little pockets
big pockets
dusty dirty things
little fingers
big dreams
big minds
little fingers
some things get easier
some things get harder
