THE SHEPHERD

                               The Shepherd

 Swift to hear,
 Hears to act
 Acts with knowledge
 He knows to reign
 Wins at odd times
 He is distinguished from others.


 Other times, the Shepherd
 Cares forgetting his needs
 Those needs are secondary
  For the primary is you.


 The Shepherd feeds,
 He guides at each time
 Tenders his flocks
 In where I come from
 Many seems not to be Shepherds.


 I weep to find
 That flocks rule not
 Shepherds.
