Divine

I really cannot call myself either believer or non-believer .
I am there somewhere in the confusion .

I cannot really comprehend what happened today .
She had to cross my seat to go ahead to her place .
For a brief while she held my hand as though she needed the support.
I am sure she was aware of my own need for it .
I still do not know if it was serendipity or not ,
but the cool touch of her frail hand stayed with me ,
like a part of my own self which loves me , guides me
and makes me aware of my own strengths.
It was the hand of -
someone beautiful ,
someone committed ,
someone humane ,
someone with the depth of an ocean ,
patience of a mountain ,
with a truly divine touch .
