A storm at sea

sorenbarrett

Far alee from thunderous crowds

On raging sea, adrift and afloat

So far to swim, sails now shrouds

Desperation seeps into a leaking boat

Wailing, shreeking, crashing so loud

My very mast a bolt has smote

Hope glimpses through, a breach in the clouds

But in dark tempest, the devil does gloat

To my maker, my head now bowed

Waves so high, land so remote

Planted in this deep, now ploughed

Burried alive, water floods my throat

Resurrected from dreams, I awoke endowed

With new life, gratitude to devote

    The picture you paint in words is so vivid, the fear so palpable, and the revival so providential, that it takes one on a journey of body and soul. Thank you dear poet for such a fav.
