Li'L Bo Peep
written in an Indian form, abhanga
Lil Bo Peep found her sheep
in a lovely locale
singing Luther’s chorale -
Mighty Fortress.
She’d trailed their tails through town,
but sheep had found a church.
There she ended her search
musical rest.
Left - no longer bereft
refrains raised her morale;
this church, a cool corral
for shepherdess.
