GAMBOLLING WITH THE SHEPHERDs CROOK

Gambolling along as ewe do, happy and carefree.
Ewe’d do it all over again, in the greening esprit.

Gambolling in full wool, unaware of morrow’s snip.
Ewe see only what is in fashion, not the future clip.

Gambolling with the Shepherd’s crook, behaving baa-dly.
Ewe do you, follow the sheepish crowd gladly.

Gambolling off a cliff, unless the one snatched from danger.
Ewe were there, curious and excited alongside the manger.

Gambolling strides bring you beside still waters and rest.
Ewe’re after risen sun, a greener pasture where ewe are blest.

Dear Kim, Your poem is such a delightful journey through life's ups and downs, beautifully woven with sheepish imagery. Your words capture the essence of carefree joy and the innocence of living in the moment. It's to embrace life's gambols with open arms despite the uncertainties that may lie ahead. Kim, your creativity shines through every line with pictures of sheepish adventures. This is a very charming piece that bubbles with the playful spirit within us all. - Blessings, Daniel
