Lamb

The young lamb arose
Shaky damp from mothers 
Womb seeking milk
It wobbled and plots its path
Not yet seeing but 
Moms tongue tickles 
His bum and guides him
Warm satisfaction milk
Strength begins to flood
This weary little soul
And now a new life will 
Cascade him into the 
World adventurer at best
