handprint

They are full and complete human beings, each one of them capable of love and loss, carrying the handprint or photo or locket of their child, their mother, their wife, close, so close, to their hearts.

As a boy he was always the first to leave his handprint in wet cement or to carve his initials onto an attic beam.

Obviously the gate would open to the handprint of a Von Rausch or a Farren.
