A PATHWAY TO THE ROAD

My neighbor made his own shovel and let me borrow it.  My driveway looks like the precipice from which the Grinch sleighed down into Whoville! Perhaps an exaggeration, but I haven’t shoveled this much snow ever. I heard we usually get an average of two inches a year. The ruler measured eight from this one storm. 

a homemade shovel
digs through snow and ice
picketing hard work

Little Bo Peep

A reckless tale indeed in losing all of her sheep
In not seeing such need she just went to sleep
All of her sheep strayed in her not being around 
Having all been sleighed when she finally found 

The Shepherd is the key as how the herd will do
Dangers they can not see just like me and you
The Shepherd, "who created Heaven and Earth"
Says in His Own Word He knew you before birth

Our watchful Lord with His Mercy always at hand
So worshiped and Adored by they who understand
But the rest of the herd wondering off in the meadow
None of it has even occurred for what do sheep know

It was Jesus who called us sheep in knowing our way
He also said many would weep in so choosing to stray
Be not of a little Bo Peep, carefully choosing a Shepherd
Not being like those who will weep, or hasn't it occurred
