Tall man

Life is full of surprises and unknowns

But be sure you are safe,

Angels send angels for you,

And such an angel is this tall man!

Me, waiting at the casualty waiting room,

My mind constantly telling me,

You are going to meet a person -

That person is tall.

We all have these intuitions

And we have ignored it from we started

Becoming ‘intelligent’.

In the pursuit of that we missed the innocent inner voice that spoke.

I looked around, no I didn't see him.

Yes, I did see many tall people

But they were not this person.

You just ‘know’.

Before even I met him,

I was given his description.

And I just knew who walked through the door,

I knew his name,

I knew it was him!

The introvert me*

Spoke to him and strangely

I was researching on his area of expertise 

For no reason…

Now I do realise he too is an introvert.

But we just knew each other

At a different level.

But being total strangers we didn't communicate that.

He was instrumental in a big decision 

And it's culmination in my life-

The reward was my mother's life.

Yes, angels did have other trump cards

In their pockets which they showed up 

At exact moments.

It was a series of awe in the midst of a crisis.

And this tall man…

An amazing human,

Who is like a breeze,

Maybe an angel, who just don't remember 

That he is an angel in human form.

People appear in our lives,

To keep us safe and secure.

People whom we can fall back on.

Just remember, you are always safe

No matter where or what!

From nowhere - ‘Tall man’ appears.

You have those around you everyday

Whom you recognise as friends and family,

But at times as ‘Tall man’.

* Topic of controversy for those who know me - let's discuss that later!
