WALKING ON WATER

        
        It starts out at first as a faint faraway rumble that is barely noticeable.  My boat sways gently in the breeze on the still blue waters.

        Suddenly, without warning, the sky darkens and black clouds begin to swirl overhead.

        Soon, I am caught in the eye of the storm as a violent squall sends my small vessel crashing against turbulent waves.



        Before long, 

                                   I am lost at sea

*

   I look for the horizon--it is nowhere to be found  

                              The dark water

 is 

the 

only 

thing 

in 

sight

I am drowning

        When,

               Slowly, I began to hear it... the faint whisper

                                  Keep your eyes

 fixed 

Fixed

FIXED

        I fight to look up, 
                       

                       
                         my eyes strain to focus

                 The dark waters began to 

recede

clear

still

obey

Taking a step out of the boat, 

the 

chaos

confusion

turbulence

all become

a distant memory

as

I

regain my footing

find my anchor

**

I WALK ON THE WATER

*For we fix our eyes not on what is seen, 

but what is unseen,

since what is seen is temporary,

but what is unseen is eternal

for T and everyone going through stormy waters
