His Hand II



tonight
He showed me
His Hand.

i've been
waiting to see
His Hand
for so long...

and tonight,
when i needed
a friend
to hold me
and hug me
watch over me
when i cried

He sent her.
my friend.
i hadn't seen her
since her wedding
and tonight
just when i needed
a friend
so badly,
she "happened"
to be in the neighborhood,
and her husband
"happened"
to want a
specific food
from his sister
who lives
a few blocks
away...
so he
dropped her off,
and for half an hour,
she sat with me
hugged me
and let me
cry,
curled up in bed
with my head
in her lap.

what else
could that be
but
His Hand?

  7. well, i have an answer for you about pillows and blankets now shef! (i think i like shef by the way, it doesn't sound like i'm talking to myself!) you can come as is, no need to shlep! we have managed to locate enough pillows and blankets, with thanks to the neighbors, so you only have to bring if you want more than one pillow!
