Shepherds tending to flocks a message given

Tonight a child is born...

While He played the fiddle
She was tending sheep.
Then they met in the middle
Under a shade tree....

as upon my knees I pray
hands  grasp the dark earth
tending the vegetables
as the master mends my soul...

It always needs changing and tending to,
For one wrong misstep might be fatal for both child and parent....

This heavy shaded room, 
Your rattle of difficult breaths; 
I had to go out 
And come back in correct, 

To silent clocks
Tending your face
And lights gone out
All over....

Everyone laughs
at Jerry's crude jokes
He's a regular guy
a bar-tending bloke

But never ever joke
that his mum's soon to croak
Jerry's fists will soon find you
~ You won't be saved by the bell...

she wants to make herself heard
but the busy sun has walked his estate
tending to matters, some urgent, some free
a new dawn, she sings again to remind
this bird, her song is sung for all

Find me in my costly time
Reading books to learn
Puzzling phrases together
Tending the exciting crime
Surrounded with pen and paper so cute
Adorable in front of the table
Come and find me in my solitude...

Born in giftedness of innate purview, 
Tending him like tender scion, is vital.
Send him to play, work isn't his battle.
Never let school, for him, be accidental,
Ergo, let's earn his souvenir from this review....

Just by amassing 

a plethora of material goods in life 

without tending his spiritual needs

one 

can never succeed in enriching his 

soul !

Shiny thirsty black crows
Sitting neatly in rows
Eyeing Sally’s water hose
Been there since this morn

Working Sally will not stop
Tending to her growing crop
Will not give the crows a drop
Because they ate her corn...

Timothy Tolliver Tines
Taught tax topics twenty times
Touting tax tips he tried
Till terribly tongue-tied
Twisted tongue tending to twine

A 
Visit
Today to
Cemetery
Father's Day no dad
To talk to and share thoughts
Too hot to stay and visit
The grave was in good shape weed free
Mother's parents and grandparents' graves
Need the grass pulled out and tending some...Sad...

Charmful lemon-shaded dragon,
Happy and respectful!
Aptitudes off the charts as a 
Reassuring and delightful storyteller.
Intelligent beyond belief and
Overwhelmingly friendly and truthful while
Tending a pumpkin patch!

'Neath nocturnal bloom
the essence of self
dwindles in a pillowed horizon
twilight dies a whisper -
your voice in my ear…

the pale goddess rises
mothering angel’s tears
tending till dawn 
a moon garden vigil
bearing witness to your visit...

My uncle,... so like Dad!
But a stout, big bellied version with different gait.
Joy he had!

But unlike Dad
Who was a town guy and refined,
No fad!

Busy,
Tending the farm.
Free!!

My uncle,... so like Dad
Who was a town guy and refined!!

Resting your  wunderbar  head 
On my bare  pubescent  chest 
Makes  my throbbing  pulsation 
Adorably  align to  our  passion of 
Night  and  day chronicles while
Tending  to  your 
Irresistible  magnetic  beguile that is 
Captivating  yet  still addictive....

All we had was a fixed illusion...
            
            We all had the same delusion.

We were never alive, although it felt that way

As over to school or tending our plantation.

We won't be born again, or live in suspect clover.

Penultimate month, November
Tending memories’ eternal ember
Sparking thoughts, grand and tender
With honor and thanksgiving to remember
For each who of the human race are a member

Tending  my blooms, I  curl
Long enough to gaze up at
Puffy white clouds sculpted
On a tranquil jeweled sky.
The light plays its game 
Of hide and seek, causing 
Me to smile, as I think God 
Must surely be dancing in His haven.

What noble little creatures they are  
tending to eggs through
starvation and storm
in colorful robes of the Gods.

We humans tend to smash our homes
with our wrecking ball souls
sift through the broken shells 
and tiny bones of tomorrow. 
Then we brand it... 
"our destiny"....
