The Eleventh Hour Worker Poem by Saiom Shriver

The Eleventh Hour Worker



Why should the 100th lamb
receive more love
than the 99 who
never strayed
and never disobeyed?

Why should the 11th hourworker
with just 60 minutes
receive the same pay
as those who worked all day?

Only love.. like his..
knows the answer..
but this we can say
Our pain was in the longer way
