hands

eyes open

He has these big, gentle, expressive hands. He folds them together like a gentleman sometimes when he’s nursing. He reaches out to the big fuzzy air with them. He presses them against his face and softly pokes his eyes out. They follow him side to side like some hula dance. He composes in the air.

    Oh, yes! Rumika still folds her hands together like that. And the reaching out into the air, I used to say she was conducting an orchestra only she could hear. Henry looks so thoughtful in this picture. If it’s an orchestra, he’s pondering which tempo would be most authentic for the third Brandenburg Concerto.
