The Shepard I am the Shepard of my wend And the orchard and the blend The bouquet and the ballet The temple and naiveté I am the choir and the church The oath of prayer and besmirch The temple and the trinity The whole of the vicinity I am the working of the earth The very place that gave me birth A moment in millenniums rhyme A spectrum of a speck of time I change within forever’s goal To fill a void and make a soul Or so it seems to me in bend Or my sense eludes the end But then again I could be wrong Perhaps I sing a different song. |

You are a poet with a prophet's pen ... your rhyme and verse teach, then transcend. Your words turn to stars that light the night ... while your wisdom warms us with the morn's invite. You are the shepard ... we are your flock ... a poetic pied piper ... your rhymes ROCK!! ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I can remember Forever December, |
