Give ‘Em A Big Hand

hand.jpg

The biggest hand was so big that when it waved it could be seen on the other side of the globe. So big that when it clapped, echoes could be heard all over the town. The biggest hand only had to point a finger and it touched the tops of skyscrapers. The biggest hand wore the biggest glove that was so big that five people could fit inside each finger. The biggest hand was so big that when it opened the door – the door fell off it’s hinges. So big that the ring on it’s finger was actually a car wheel. When the biggest hand played musical instruments, it hit the drum so hard that it ended up with a big hole in the middle. So big that when the biggest hand played the saxaphone, the buttons always came undone … and the tune it played was so loud that it could be heard all over the globe. When the biggest hand fastened up trousers, inevitably, the zip broke. So big that when it buttoned up a shirt, the buttons popped off, one by one.
