Something to think and contemplate about!

STERN RUDDER

She seems to do nothing; appears to be still.

With hands raised upward, obeying His Will.

She seems to be empty, yet is filled with great hope.

The one who knows justly, and fairly to cope!

Intuitively marching forward,

Towards the vibrations of the lighthouse,

Sole and demeaning; her companion a mouse.

A meek servant,

Nearly totally unseen,

All must obey her directions,

A mind pure and keen.

Peaceful, calm, non-violent;

Adjacent to a fine line between humiliation and humility,

She leans not on a whip.

There she is, persistent,

Unfluctuating,

Faithfully, guiding the huge Ship!
