Handprint Poem for Valentine's Day

An Original Handprint Poem to Use for a Valentine's Day Craft for Children

Stephanie Lush
With your two hands you've cradled me
And loved me from the start

I've made for you a heart

You can frame it in a picture frame
Or hang it by the phone
You can tuck it in my baby book
To show me when I've grown

Aside from my two handprints
And the memories they'll provide
The most important gift
Is all the love they hold inside.
