Mayflower II on the Open Seas by Montague Dawson
boatload of faith
puritans flee persecution
embark for freedom to worship
bible believers,
soldiers, profit seekers
travel together in tight quarters
illness on board
violent storms at sea
God’s providence holds fast
birth of child on
vast ocean of hope
blessing for future colony
Another quadrille about the pilgrims; written second but prequels my first…

joyfully follow the light

morning prayer path
first rays enlighten ditches
grass gives thanks for dew
evening worship walk
sunset illumines grain fields
God whispers his love

lifer serving time
raises loud voice in worship
imprisoned, yet free
heart of stone softened
plays new music, writes fresh poem
spirit soars, unchained
baptismal witness
covered by mercy’s waters
saves a drowning man

1. morning glory
reflective moments
night fades before sun’s splendor
beauty inspires praise
2. day of rest
focus on His word
quiet the soul’s restlessness
renewed by worship
3. fellowship
brothers and sisters
gracious hospitality
share meal together
4. re-creation
wander out of doors
breathe deeply natural scene
rejuvenate mind
5. two or three
humbly bow our hearts
Spirit hears groans of prayers
power is unleashed
6. full circle
meditative mood
full moonrise illumines sky
resting in God’s grace
7. benediction
taking sabbath rest
pause from world’s distracting pace
regeneration
