Valentine Handprint Poem #1:

This isn’t just any handprint as you can plainly see.
For it is a special handprint
Made by Me!
Along with this handprint
I send lots of hugs and kisses your way.
And ask that God bless you
On this Valentines Day!    (Mother’s Day!)

Valentine Handprint Poem #2:

This isn’t just a valentine  (card or gift)
As you can plainly see
It is of course my handprint
Which is a part of me
It’s bigger than the last one
Will be smaller than the rest
Isn’t it fun to see the difference
And how much I am blessed
It’s been through lots of frolic
And will be grown up pretty fast
They will be gone soon
Because I’m growing fast
But for the moment, it’s the best
Because it came from me
And just think
You help me grow up best
But I just want to tell you
That I love you (fill in name) dear
It’s been through lots of frolic
And will be grown up too fast
Just keep this to remind you
That I love you one and all
A simple little reminder
Of yesterdays past

Valentine Handprint Poem #3:

This isn’t just a valentine   (card or gift)
As you can plainly see
It is of course my handprint
Which is a part of me
It’s bigger than the last one
Smaller than the next will be
Given to you with lots of love
From sweet and precious me
(Or sent to you)  (Or lovable me)
