frightened by a storm

standing in the boat

while Jesus was with them

not at peace, calm

mirroring the storm

captured by the waves

the roar of the wind around them

buffeted, tossed about

frightened by  a storm

not trusting in Jesus

needing to wake him

for proof of his power

needing him to calm

the waters, the storm

still confused, arguing

the nature of Jesus

powerful enough

to calm the storm

to still the rolling sea
