Palms of Sand

My father once said to me, “Marry a man that has palms of coarse sand”

A woman can never go hungry with a man with palms of sand

Because the feel of his hands will tell you how hard he is willing to work for you

How strong he is to fight for you

Or how willing he is to lose you

From that day on, I knew that the man I introduced to my father would need to have palms of sand

Otherwise, it would be a waste of his time

The hell am I going to do with a man with palms softer than mine...
