Mother’s Day Poems For Kids – Handprint Art

My Handprints

You always clean the fingerprints

I leave upon the wall.

I seem to make a mess of things

Because I am so small.

The years will pass so quickly,

I’ll soon be grown like you

And all my little fingerprints

Will surely fade from view.

So here’s a special handprint,

A memory that is true

So you’ll recall the very day

I made this just for you!
