Glory's Seas

A drift upon dark lonely seas
My heart navigating to lust
Astern defiently to G-d
listless, tideless, without wind
a boat, stagnat, waiting endlessly
Yet I turn, and You redeem
a storm takes up boat
billowing sails full of love
waves wash and toss about
mercy thrusts my heart forward
to break against the Rock
only to anchor me safely in hope
love breaks, tears away the rot
Grace rebuilds, boat, mast, sail: Gloriously
And joy finds heart enveloped
transformed, whole, patterned
Ready to sail, full sail, on glory's seas.
