Feed My Sheep He Pled

Feed My Sheep He Pled
By David J Walker

It turns out that my
Atheists friends were all wrong
Jesus is real 

And he hangs around 
on a cross-town traffic light
Over the bricks laid by prisoners
In the streets of our long ago downtown 

Watching the Salvation Army 
Marching the hungry children 

Stopping for a taste of his blood 
And beard from his beard

Feed my sheep he said
	Feed my sheep he pled 

The light changed and
	He was gone
