Sea Glass: Illumination

A sea-faring vessel on Galilean 
Sea, fully dutied, dawn's a storm.
The ship's crew saw Christ walk 
on water -- disciples inclusive.

Peter bid to partake, Christ said, 
"Come." He beheld watery life 
'neath the becalm Sea Glass, and
his whole being walks over it, raises 
his inner glory to Christ's glory 
divine, voice of assurance.

The storm woke Peter and fear 
joined the climb. The Sea Glass robs 
Peter's leap of faith to a sunken fate. 
" ... little faith ... room for doubt." 
The storm ends, and Peter is safe 
onboard.

A vessel stern bids farewell, and its 
crew praising the Son of God, as a
parting wanes a shimmering glass
sea mid a new calm proverbial day.
