5 FINGERS

Why 5 fingers
In God’s mind,
why 5 fingers?

In our minds
why 5 fingers?
Why this evolution?
 
Left hand,
right hand….
Why 5 fingers?
 
Pinky and thumb ….
Index finger ….
Those 2 other fingers ….
 
To grab, to hold,
to scratch, to tap,
to sign our name….
 
To watch people
use their hands –
sign language and texting.
 
Amazing, to look
at our hands and
wonder: why 5 fingers?
