Breakfast


It’s dawn and light and cool, I shiver
We’re on the boat and moving quickly,
Early morning, no one else
Dark on the shore, light plays on water
And they jump in but I stand watching
We’re getting near,
‘Come, have some breakfast’
Now I wade in and I’m coming and I’m nearer
And I’m here my Lord.


(Based on John 21: The Bible)

Unseen


It was unseen.

The waiting on God.
The time spent.
The listening.

No tweets, status updates.
No 'look at me world'
Just plodding by slowly.
Slowly, so slowly.

It was unseen and steady
She longed for the depths.
Walking, and talking
Speaking out prayers.

Learning to listen.
No seeking the glory,

In the unseen.
