Bear Tales...The Finger Church


The Finger Church
eleanor jewett

My mother has the strangest hands
   They make a church; they make a steeple
And when the front door open wide
   They make just half a dozen people

The steeple rises tall as tall.
   Her thumbs make stately, massive doors
And then she laughs and turns her hands
   And out the stream of people pours!
