Brushing the robe, halting hesitant,
two fingers barely touched the hem—
desperation
bleeding pain and disappointment for years and tears.
It was a desperate touch, a face-to-ground, weighted-down
touch.
And in the moment He knew, and I knew.
In the jostle of swarming feet, flying dust and flailing
pleas,
insignificant me,
me on the fringe,
gripped the fringe of his garment; and in one moment, the
tiny thread that held me tethered to life and hope became sacred bonds of the everlasting,
and I was healed.
