With power and love

A friend called me and asked how I was doing. I responded, “I am in perfect peace, in a perfect storm.” Later in the evening, I wrote this poem as a reflection of my day.
The storm is raging
The Prince of Peace calls us near
He speaks to the storm
I’ll give attention
To one who calms the storm
With power and love
He spoke with authority
And the sea that was raging
Became still and quieted
A sight to behold
The fear in the storm
Came from inside my being
The storm wasn’t the open sea
But my broken heart
The grief was overwhelming
Pain I had no language for
All of my dreams were shattered
Peace is what I needed
