Poetry: Sheep

The Sheep

The people live in houses
Surround themselves with walls
While sheep roam free on meadows and fields and drink from waterfalls.

The home of the sheep is the meadow
While a person's is of concrete
A man only knows to the end of his nose but a sheep has the world at its feet.

The sheep should live in the houses
And build themselves cities and towns
Then the people could move to the valleys and mountains and live on the moors and the downs

A sheep's life is boring, it will not ask 'why?'
Or turn its head up to the sky
But people in houses behave just like sheep and follow the tail in front till they die.

    I have no words
    To sound
    Of complaint

    I was born
    In partnership

    When you bottle feed a baby,

    It trusts you'll give it care.

    Baby lambs so trusting,

    Not knowing to beware.

    Yes, I tended

    Sometimes at night

    when I can't sleep,

    I try the standard

    of counting sheep.

    Some times it works,

    sometimes it fails,
