Poetry Saturday—I Met God In The Morning

October 11, 2014 — Craig T. Owens

When my day was at its best,
And His Presence came like sunrise
Like a glory in my breast.


All day long the Presence lingered,


All day long He stayed with me,


And we sailed in perfect calmness


O’er a very troubled sea.




Other ships were blown and battered,


Other ships were sore distressed,


But the winds that seemed to drive them


Brought to us a peace and rest.




Then I thought of other mornings,


With a keen remorse of mind,


When I, too, had loosed the moorings


With the Presence left behind.




So I think I know the secret,


Learned from many a troubled way;


You must seek Him in the morning


If you want Him through the day. —Ralph Cushman
