Poem
A Shepherd tends to his sheep watching over them to protect His desire is to keep them all close To see them all gather from the call of His voice He shall provide and lead them to water so they shall not thirst He shall lead them to green pastures for their hunger is satisfied The Shepherd is love and comfort but yet so few will return the love and seek for his guidance and knowledge for they do not understand how all have gone astray For they might see a few green plants begin to bloom and wander off from the Herd in search of trying to eat on their own maybe a mud puddle in view as they run to drink it before the others take notice These sheep grow more confident in providing for themself and wander further as each day passes seeking from their own wisdom while pushing down a corrupt path causing confusion to escape their winding maze The Shepherd continues to call for the ones which have got lost He longs to see them come out from the wild His mercy and love forgives them of where they have been while making a new creation so they shall love and teach of their escape Many sheep shall hear His voice and know this is Him listening carefully to be lead back Home To be thankful He never quit calling and the desire to feel the Love and Comfort once felt To rejoice in living in His Herd
